The spacing of the apical scutellar bristles suggests Chlorops. In Thaumatomyia they would be much closer together

Thanks. Do they have this differense between sexes or maybe only individual variability? |

As far as I know, the scutellar bristle character applies to both sexes. Also, in Thaumatomyia, the top of the scutellum is flat (convex in Chlorops). Compare your specimens to https://www.inatu...yia-notata
