Intrigueing. Perhaps an agromyzid of some sort. Get the feeling I have seen it before...

This was also in the very small size range, 2 mm or so. |

The posture reminded me of Dolichopodidae, though...

Several ephydrids will sit like this too, but I can't make it into anything I know there. It doesn't sit like a chloropid, otherwise I'd suggest a small oscinelline. What a puzzle! One day someone will post a picture of a previously unknown genus!  Tony Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

This year, at Dahab, Sinai I met small 2-2,5mm, on the house wall near sea. Fly still left unidentified. It seems to me it is nearly same? Nikita Nikita Vikhrev attached the following image:  [60.9Kb] Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

This is a tethinid - it is similar, but note that the thorax is dusted so that it is quite dull, and the fly sits closer to the ground. I can't think of any tethinids that sit more upright and are shiny! Tony Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

I think they belong to different genera but maybe to the same family.I start to think that we are in the Ephydrid territory... |

One of the more characteristic feature of this fly seems to be the light first 2 abdominal segments. Does it help? |
