 I am sorry for the confusion writing you it wasn’t Platypalpus. I thought the mid femora were not thickened. Looking again, I agreeSmile

I am very happy that I came to the same ID (split from https://diptera.i..._id=114279). Thank you very much.

No worries, this deserved its own topic. I did not 100% confirm the genus, and was not able to by myself. Thanks for the feedback!
