 Is it possible to get any further with this fly? I guess it is impossible to identify to species level based on these pictures, but any suggestion would be much appreciated.
It has 1+1 katepisternals and a small bristle under the posterior one. The radio-cubital node is bare.
Brontaea humilis?

 I checked my females of Gymnodia humilis (it is correct name, not Brontaea any more (see Pont's work). At first glance everything fit with G. humilis. For example, rather unusual acrostichals (outer rows distinctly stronger than 1-2 inner rows) fit too.
