Thank you, John :)

I was looking at this subfamily earlier. I wish that i had a specimen because it is difficult to key. I don't see the extra bristle near the arista so i think that Setacera is out. I notice a greenish tinge to the thorax, so i wonder if it could be Paracoenia fumosa.

atleast i know where to start if i get a specimen.

Thank you very much for all of the help. I am happy to place this in a family and a subfamily. I am thankful for diptera.info and all of its members. We have a great community here of common interest :)
