Netherlands, Kiersche Wiede, 25-10-2008.
Could this be Voria species?

I'd say Voriini - sharply angled m-cu and strong down-curved facial bristle ... but not sure if it is
Voria or another genus :)

thank you Chris.
I'll add a more detailed magnification of the head, to see if more precise identification is possible.

Voria is an excellent ID (no discal seta, only 1 parafacial seta), and since there is only 1 species, it is
Voria ruralis
Known to be rather common in september - octobre, so that fits as well.
