Muscidae or Anthomyiidae. This reminds me of some North American Hylemya. I don't remember if there are any species currently assigned to that genus in South America.

More clear like on modified photo. My guess: genus Coenosopsia Malloch, 1924. It has long plumose arista and partly yellow abdomen. See: Systematic Entomology (2004) 29, 260–275, Taxonomy, cladistics and biogeography of Coenosopsia Malloch (Diptera, Anthomyiidae) and its significance to the evolution of anthomyiids in the Neotropics.
