The only species of Opomyzidae of Japan is supposed to be Geomyza advena, which looks quite different from this fly. Nevertheless, this fly looks stucturally somewhat similar to Opomyzidae. |

Than I lost. It's a pity that such a nice family almost absent in Japan .My next stake is Drosophilidae. I hope you have enoght Drosophilidae in Japan? Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

No Drosophilidae, I think. The setae on the femora are too prominent.

Heleomyzidae? Just guessing .... a good size reference would help somewhat. Kahis |

http://xespok.net...1000034209 This moth is on the same material, and is this moth is abount 2.5-3 cm long. This means that this fly was a rather big fly, maybe around 1 cm, and I also remember that it was a sizable fly. Looking more thoroughly on the image, the costae seem to contain setae, which is supposed to be a good field mark for Heleomyzid flies. Maybe a Sullia sp? |
