Yes!! At least, clearly the second female fits nicely! :)

Perhaps it is my computer but I cannot see the antennae so clearly in the male and female first posted. And the mesonotum, looking so bare in those pictures, has completely fooled me. Alexander, could you post the pictures in higher resolution, please? It would be very interesting to see more detail.

It should be either E. gracilis or E. nigrosetosus. I am inclined to think it is E. gracilis (through the microtrichae on the wings) but I would need to see more details to be certain. Perhaps any of you with a better quality computer can see more detail in those pictures. I simply cannot go further :(
