 The legs look wrong for Clinohelea. Quoting Grogan and Wirth (1975): "Femora slender, occasionally with up to four spines; 4th tarsomere of at least mid and hind legs deeply bilobed, each lobe ending in a stout blunt spine and smaller spines; fore 5th tarsomere greatly swollen in both sexes; fore claws equal, mid and hind very unequal in female; all claws equal in male." https://scholarsa...35/iss3/4/

 The ventral spines on the last tarsal segments rule out both Clinohelea and Palpomyia. I think it is Mallochohelea inermis, female.
