Found this tiny fly (1.5 mm) in an ant colony (lasius spec) in my garden, mid Netherlands. ID possible?

From Stilpon graminum it became Stilpon nubilus and now it has become Stilpon subnubilus. :) Identification based on genital and wing characters.

Thanks Paul. Must be a new species for the Dutch fauna? Stilpon subnubilus is not yet Known from the Netherlands
