Wow, nice specimen! I don't think this is Sciomyzidae, to me it looks more like a Pyrgotidae! But I am not sure! Greetings, Gerard pennards Greetings, Gerard Pennards |

It reminds me of the Psilid genus Loxocera. Very long third antennal segment and triangular headshape (in profile) So possibly a Psilidae ? Theo Zeegers |

Some Japanese friends identified this as a Platystomatidae species Lamprophthalma japonica Frey. This was my first time to encounter a species belonging to this family. |

I think they may be right with the family. If they even know a species name, then who am I to start doubting them.
