Male
Dolichopus. The swollen costa is a secondary sexual character in many Dolichopodidae. I think the femora are "yellow" (but dark) rather than "black" if you try to key it. It resembles
ungulatus except for the long, black hairs under the hind femur.

Hi !
Why not
D. atratus which has long hairs under femurs ?
Just a question
