Well, the mutation is well-known for Drosophila, so why not in other families...?

Paul, it seems that the fly doesn't change the colour. All the fly has a normal shape. If really the colour doesn't change, it could be a mutation..

...and when you fix the link (too many http's), it doesn't open in a new page, but takes you away from diptera.info, which I don't like.
