Sphaeroceridae indeed  Wait for the opinion of an expert but I would bet on this one being Sphaerocera curvipes  |

Paul Beuk has been working quite extensively on Sphaeroceridae lately. Maybe he can confirm the identification. From my side I think the ID is correct.

It has most of the looks of S. curvipes. The wing venation seems to be slightly different from the specimens I have at hand (slightly more curvature in M1+2 and R4_5 perhaps a little more curved forward). Thye main reason for a slight hesitation is the fact that I cannot see individual curved spines under the hind metatarsi. Perhaps the have become cluttered with debris, making them look like a solid flange.. If you can confirm they are separate curved setae, then ID is confirmed.
