 One of the predatory Ceratopogoninae, maybe Palpomyia. I can't see the genitalia well enough to sex it for sure. It has no plume but some of the males in this group have female-like antennae.

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.
