Visual Description
Acrocera obsoleta exhibits the characteristic "humpbacked" body form typical of the family Acroceridae, also known as small-headed flies. The thorax is highly arched and robust, contrasting with a relatively small, inconspicuous head that is positioned ventrally. The abdomen is notably globose or rounded, giving the fly a bloated or bee-like appearance. The wings are large in proportion to the body, appearing translucent with distinct, darkened venation patterns characteristic of the genus Acrocera[1].
