Here some more aspects - the antennal ratio is now hard to show, so I left it out.

Legs rather dark with yellow rings

Tip of last flagellomere with pin-like tip

Around 12 scutellar bristles

Wing length: obviously need a finer scale, maybe around1.8mm

Wing seems to have two radial cells (or is this open?)

So, I feel good with Subgenus Dasyhelea, and in particular D. bilineata, but the wing confuses me...
Any more comments highly appreciated
