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! TumbsUp

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. TumbsUp

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.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
