Syrphidae
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.

John, I have no idea what we have here, I have no literature at all, only a copy of Unwin's key to the Families of Diptera of the UK. However checking the gallery suggests that YES, we do have Orthonevra here in China, and O. elegans might not be a bad place to start, certainly close. ThanksSmile
