Observed very recently from Zhejiang China. A small (3mm in body length) dipteran with orange-colored abdomen. Family ID possible? Thanks.

Probably subfamily Phasiinae or Dexiinae in family Tachinidae. |

Didn't expect it to be a tachinid! Thank you John for the ID!  |

Did a check. The body coloration and wing venation look somewhat similar to Phasia aurulans (http://syrphidae1...rulans.jpg). Phasiinae perhaps.

Rondania seems to be a good possibility. Thanks Theo. |

If this is a Rondania it is a new record for China. The only species of Rondania so far recorded from China is R. cucullata which looks different. |
