Location: Israel Habitat: Eucalyptus tree bark Size: 3-4 mm This tiny fly not make it easy for the photographer he is very sensitive to the pre flash light and take off before the main flash So the only way to photo this fly is on manual flash I saw these flies only on Eucalyptus tree bark in shady place (in different location) Amir attached the following image:  [83.65Kb] My insects album http://albums.tap...il/weinman Assorted flies from china http://www.tapuz....1&o=4&ao=1 |

although I found them on the bark at different highs the best place to locate them is on the base of the trunk Amir attached the following image:  [79.28Kb] My insects album http://albums.tap...il/weinman Assorted flies from china http://www.tapuz....1&o=4&ao=1 |

Hi, I know very few from this family but it's surely a Medeterinae, maybe Medetera sp. Wait for others to answer also  Walter |
