Senometopia, I guess. That will be a challenge.

* discals on tergites distinct, irregular or absent ?
* ventral bristle on mid titba absent or present ?
* fore tibia with 1 or 2 posterior bristles ?

It is a male, right ? We should check the genitalia.

Yes, sorry, you need to extract them. If you have never done this before, please do not try with this specimen but practice with a more common species

* put a very wet folded paper in a plastic box (size lunchbox) that can be closed.
* put the fly in this box on an itex
* leave it for 8 hours
* try to fold out the genitalia using a micropin and/or a genaitalia pincer

Based on the genitalia, it is S. excisa.

Thanks
