Thanks.

Cordilura ciliata, unless there is another species with a long seta lateral of the base of the arista (well visible in the right antenna on the third image). If no-one disagrees about the ID, then, please, submit for Gallery.

This long seta is also present in your last photo of the female! And Ball's key says, "The strong bristle on the outside of the third antennal segment below the insertion of the arista is a distinctive feature." So both are C. ciliata Smile.

Paul, only Cordilura ciliata has this seta, Ozerov told me that once.
