Hello everyone!

Could anyone help me with the ID of this fly please ? It was captured in a mango orchard in Reunion Island!

Thanks in advance!

This is a Rhodesiella species, Chloropidae. It cannot be identified further from a photo.

Chloropidae, Rhodesiellinae: Rhodesiella ?rugosa (Lamb, 1912). Identified Rhodesiella species are not known from La RĂ©union. Lamb (1912, Trans. Linn. Soc. London (Ser. 2) 15: 303-348, pls. 15-16) described on p.333 Meroscinis rugosa from the Seychelles, transferred to Rhodesiella by Bezzi (1919). The description agrees with the details to be seen in the photographs. The species is also known from Saudi Arabia (Palearctic Region).
Read thread http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=62368&pid=266690#post_266690 which probably presents the same individual in an enlargement
