May be, it is Phyllomyia volvulus?

It's certainly possible ... just going through my
P.volvulus specimens they look very similar to your photos... but mine were collected into alcohol so their heads are all deformed and don't look as nice as these. But the wing venation fits my specimens perfectly so I'd certainly give it a provisional "OK" .. but I'd like to see the head a bit clearer ;)
