 Thinophilus (or possibly some very closely related oriental genus). And it does indeed belong to Hydrophorinae!

 I've got some kit of articles by Igor Grichanov (of course, about DolichopodidaeGrin from Africa and Palearctica). In one review I found that there is a very cosmopolitan sp. of Thinophilus - Th. indigenus - all Africa, India, Oriental region. Is it Thinophilus indigenus, please?

P.S. In lower right corner - Ephydridae for Tony, Scatella?

 Nikita, I am sorry for a long delay. I have identified your dry male as
Thinophilus tesselatus Becker, 1922: Capita zool. (Den Haag) 1(4): 35
It is the same as on your photo.
At the same time, GROOTAERT, P. & H. MEUFFELS have described three new species from Thailand and have stated that many more new species can be found there. Good hunting!
Igor.

 Thank you Igor.
Thus, spet by step Thai flies find their names!
And nice new genus for Gallery.
As far as I understand second image is female?

 The Scatella is almost certainly tenuicosta - it is none of the other species recorded in this region, and as far as I'm aware is new to Thailand. Cool (Any specimens?)
