My only photo of this fly. Is this a Chloropid?

Size? - I'm guessing 2 mm - in which case I would not rule out Chloropidae, or Ephydridae. Do you think the white marks on the thorax are just reflections?

No, i think the white marks are real, except the one behind the haltere on T2. The size could be slightly larger, maybe 3 mm. Gabor Keresztes Japan Wildlife Gallery Carpathian Basin Wildlife Gallery |

In that case, I don't think Ephydridae, but Drosophilidae is another possibility. In fact Amiota fits very well, but I don't know whether there is enough detail in the photo to be able to say which species. There are pictures of Amiota alboguttata in the gallery.

All markings fit Amiota. Might be alboguttata but the details are too blurry.
