My Diptera observations (and other living forms) can be found here, and corrections or comments over there would also be appreciated.

I thought so too, but I didn't find a match with the wing pattern. At the same time, I am not sure if it's just a shadow that makes the wing tip appear dark...

Dicranomyia chorea is a good candidate. Body light striped. The wings have dark patterns to fit. Flight time is now.
