Tephritidae sp. - Fruit Fly A very distinctive fly, but as with a lot of what you might call the less significant creatures, simply not enough work has been done on identification on bugs in Indonesia. I did not find a single image to match, not even on Flickr.<br />
<br />
The fly is fairly easy to phorograph, because rather than flying away, it angles the face of its wings towards you, believing that this makes him invisible.<br />
<br />
Location is Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. Alongside a stream and paddy fields.<br />
