Right !

Clearly a member of the tribe Rhiini of subfamily Chrysomyinae of the family Calliphoridae. Rhiini are always difficult to recognize as Calyptratae.

Well, once you can recognise Stomorhina lunata, this one is not too difficult to place. :)

Then, Stomorhina lunata of Chrysomyinae, Calliphoridae?
Thank you Theo and Paul.

Er..., no. Stomorhina lunata is of the tribe Rhiini of subfamily Chrysomyinae of the family Calliphoridae, but that is not the species in the picture. You can find two pictures of that species here.

OK.

Posted by Nikita Vikhrev on 29-01-2006 23:29

Is it also Chrysomyinae, tribe Rhini?

No doubt a member of the tribe Rhiini indeed (spelling with ii)

As we know now N2 is Rhinia apicalis
N1 and N3 (attached below, also Thailand) seems are
Cosmina bicolor widespread and common Oriental fly.
Could you help me with one problem: Kurahashi in his article with key for Thai Cosmina used word "epaulet" without explanations:@
First idea epaulet=shoulders seems uncorrect.
May be "epaulet" = basicosta ?

Nikita

Epaulettes are the sclerites in the wing joining the basicosta.

"Epaulet" usually refers to the sclerite just basal to the basicosta - these days called the tegula.

Before anyone asks: tegula header=[tegula] body=[The proximal one of the two plates in the axillary area of the wing located at the extreme base of the costal margin. The basicosta is the distal one.
Synonym: epaulet.
