acalypter fly, presence of ocelli... pubescent, almost bare arista... crossvein BM-Cu absent, hyaline wing--- it seems a chloropid. There is a very simply way to see this. See if it has a big ocellar triangle. ;)

Oh yes, maybe I should keep the lights on with my microscope :) Now I see the glossy black triangle on black frons. Thank's Jorge.
