Hello everyone!
Can we name this 3.5mm Phoridae found today in a compost bin (Normandy, north of France)?
Thank you!

The wings looks like several genera found here:

Pericyclocera
Cremersia
Neodohrniphora

One of them could be a good lead?
Thanks

The genera Dohrniphora has been suggested on the frensh forum LMDI.

Can anyone confirm this hypothesis?
Thanks!

Dohrnophora should have large isolated setae on the tibiae
