Hi! Thanks for the suggestions. Quite tough for a layperson like me to decide, I must confess. Euglypta flavopunctata doesn’t share the colors of what I spotted. The fruit beetle, on the other hand, looks like it but not exactly as was pointed out...

Thanks for pointing out. It is the white upper forewing and yellow hindwing that give it away...

Yup, my sighting sure looks exactly like your search result. Salamat (thank you, in my language)!

Thanks for this, Sir.
But might it be Pareronia valeria palawana perhaps? Through my layperson's eyes at least, the one in my picture looks like palawana (the color in the main)...
What do you think, Sir?

Thanks for the info, Mr. John B.
Indeed, I thought it is a bee. What a surprise to learn a fly can look eye-catching! From the link you forwarded,
I guess it is a female syrphus ribesii?
