Nice portraits of a small fly! It is Limosininae (Sphaeroceridae). There are strange people on this forum who can name some of these on sight! We should wait to hear from them.

Leptocera or possibly Rachispoda -- Limosininae with top of sctuellum bare and margin with more than two pairs of bristles. Rachispoda has two incurved bristles near the front of the thorax and a big nose. |

I have more photographs taken, and I have the specimen if it is necessary to obtain more details. What I do not have is knowledge to draw conclusions. I will upload more images so that you, with your knowledge, can reach conclusions.
