I notice clear wings, contrasting dark tip of antenna and black mouthparts. No sure, but I think this is Lauxaniidae.

Edit: Changed subject (Lauxaniidae?)

Can't find that species mentioned anywhere. Has it got a synonym?

1. Meiosimyza = Lyciella, here in Diptera.info - Meiosimyza, in Fauna Europea - Lyciella.
2. It isn't L.=M.nigripalpis (I looked at wrong couplet). Black antennae apex and black palpi + clear wing - L.=M.affinis, but it is my guess only

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
