 Hi, I'm not sure (very dark and difficult to count bristles) - but can it be a male Epicampocera succincta?
Greetings, Eric

 There is not enough to go on. The third antennal segment is a bit long for Epic. and the arista a bit too thick.
I have no better suggestion.

Can you give an indication of size . more like 5 or more like 10 mm. .

 Yes, it looked smaller. So if that is correct, no Epicampocera. But still unclear.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
