While I was at the outdoor market last year in Mae Hong Son in Northern Thailand, I encountered this interesting looking bug sitting on a plant leaf. I could not figure out for the life of me whether this little critter was a fly or a moth. In retrospect, I should have taken a frontal view picture of the bug as this may have helped me make an educated guess, but I was not using my head at the time. If there are any entomology enthusiasts out there, can you please help me identify this bug - is it a fly or moth, and what is the species name?

Anybody?
