I think
Taxigramma (but not a genus that I've met)

Very interesting, at a Pompilus nest.
Paragusia and Hilarella are fused with Taxigramma these days, so it is definitely Taxigramma
Based on the first pic, the topcel in wing has a petiole, would you agree ?

Looking at other pics from Arnold Wijker of the same fly I think there is no petiole (i could be looking at the wrong cell)

Well, in any case, it is definitely closed. Also, we can see now the wing venation is shifted towards the anteroir wing margin, but not as extreme as in the other species.
Taxigramma hilarella.
