Thanks for the blow-up. It is not razorsharp, but I think it is safe to conclude that
* no long hairs present on first antennal segment
* no tuft of long hairs present at vertex

So it is montana-group, rather than bimaculata group:

Male Hybomitra tropica.

Also better fit with the habitat

Pretty late in the year, though.
