I'd suggest a Pterogramma sp., you can try and check Smith & Marshall, 2004 (Contributions in Science, 499)
While others can't climb, using infinite pains, I, gravity turning to jest, Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes, Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best. |

There is a similar genus Robustagramma. Manual of Central American Diptera includes a key to all described genera of neotropical Sphaeroceridae. In addition to the key there, I can point you to Joel Kits' comment on BugGuide: http://bugguide.n...231/bgpage. |
