Looks to me like
Exorista, but I've been wrong before...

Yup - looks like
Exorista rustica (group - including
mimula,
tubulosa,
rustica) to me (mustard-coloured face dusting, long pointy abdomen, parafacial bristles, 3 post-dc, shadow-fold on median vein) ... most probably
E. rustica itself (based on appearance & being very common this time of year) :)
[
tubulosa looks almost identical but is rarer and needs genitalia, while
mimula is usually much smaller]
