 Yes, it is Mallota. Probably M. dusmeti.
Are the eyes bare?

Your catch? Smile

 Yes, it was caught by myself. I was with Andrade. But he was collecting other flies on trees. Smile I went to Umbelliferae where this Mallota was found. I have the couple.
I will check the specimen later and telling here if the eyes are bare/hairy.
