[Syrphidae] Ask for determination of Syrphids from Papua new Guinea

[ximo mengual sanchis]

Dear Libor,

as already said, they look *Graptomyza* to me laso. Here there is the known
species list for PNG that Chris made for a web site this year.

http://www.papua-insects.nl/insect%20orders/Diptera/Syrphoidea/Syrphoidea.htm

If I'm right, there are several species of *Graptomyza* in the region still
undescribed.

Cheers,

Ximo
