 Yes, I think Odontomyia or Oplodontha.

 Most likely Odontomyia cf ornata, not Oplodontha. What is the approximate size?

 I'm pretty sure that it is Odontomyia but with that small size I couldn't tell. Maybe juvenile O. ornata or any other Odontomyia. But my best guess is still ornata but full grown larvae of that species are about 30mm
