Taken in malaise trap in Quevedo in western Ecuador. I don't have the specimen in front of me so I can't check the status of the Sc vein. But the wing looks spot on like the photo in Manual of Central American Diptera

You're most probably right, check also the first description by Kertész, 1903 (Eine neue Familie der acalyptraten Musciden - Annales Musei Nationalis Hungarici 1: 355-358) or redescription in Korneyev & Norrbom, 2006 (Instrumenta Biodiversitatis VII: 105-155)

Certainly it is. Compare with the type.
