Looks pretty weird. Note the relatively long petiole in wing venation. Is this the only picture available ? Theo |

Antenna is like Acemya. I think cell r5 is narrowly open or closed at or near the wing margin, with folding of the wing making it appear long-petiolate. |

Yes, John, well spotted. My thought as well. I was still working on this hypothesis before posting. Theo |

Yes, it is the male Acemyia acuticornis. Theo |
