my best shot of the aculeus, which unfortunately was lost without trace at some point during the photo session with this fly

Hi Martin yes i agree - a female of Silba fumosa - photo 4 shows clearly the 2 katepisternal setae and the longer setulae in the fringe of the calypteres - the aculeus photo is also diagnostic with the two dorsal setae half way along the apical segmant - thanks for your e-mail as well! best wishes .....
