Wow, just look at those antennae! Lovely  The face is quite hollowed-out so it could be Paracraspedothrix ... I'm just not 100% sure because I can't make out the wing venation or see how the abdomen is dusted.

You can see the very strong setula on base of vein R in the wing. so it is Elfia or Phytomyptera (which is, by the way, considered synonymous by some), or Neaera, which I have never seen. Theo |

Thank you so much! It’s an interesting fly! The wings are whitish and vein M1 does not bend, it’s very tenuous and I think it does not reach the wing margin. |

I'm not convinced. IN lacteipennis, the wing is much whiter. Theo |
