Cannot place it yet, but I can rule out any of the mentioned families. It certainly is an acalyptrate fly.

Maybe Dolichopodidae? |

No, it is not one of the orthorrhaphous Brachycera (which includes the Dolichopodidae). I was wondering about Psilidae for this one.

Hi. My first thought was Clusiidae; rather narrow, darkened wing tip, yellow/black pattern on thorax. Kahis |

http://tolweb.org...=Clusiidae This might be a particularly relevant link, since the fly was on a tree trunk. |

This fly was confirmed to be a Clusiidae, by an expert of the family. Owen Lonsdale. |
