Tephritidae. The wing reminds me of the "medfly" Ceratitis capitata but it is not the same. |

I suppose it's Acroceratitis, though I couldn't find a good match in Hancock & Drew, 1999 (J.Nat.Hist., 33:5, 633-775), so maybe it's still Ceratitis (no good match in De Meyer's articles, too). Try to attract attention of experts (Valery Korneyev aka Nosferatumyia),
Edited by Dmitry Gavryushin on 01-12-2015 10:03 While others can't climb, using infinite pains, I, gravity turning to jest, Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes, Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best. |

Thanks. Remind me, I shall try all the possible keys to fit the species (indeed, Acroceratitis or near)
