A striking "Leptogaster" (s.l.) sp. female. (Really need more details of head, body & wing venation to be positive of genus!)
Colorful legs will help associate sexes, as must see male for further ID.
Cheers, Eric

Psilonyx sp. male. Thanks Ricardo; image #3 is perfect. Neotropical spp. of Psilonyx (most of genus!) need revision before full identification possible. Banding pattern of legs indicates male & female likely conspecific.
Cheers, Eric
