The wing venation is very costal, if you look closely.
So it should be something like Taxigramma or Paragusia.

Thank you Theo. What would be necessary to make it possible to pick one over the other?

there seem to be no post ACR-bristles, which would rather suggest the genus Hilarella.
Two - three very similar species.
I hope Liekele can confirm/deny Hilarella and give more comments

Oeps, I forgot to reply on this thread.
I think it is not Hilarella nor Paragusia (now often included in Taxigramma), but Taxigramma sensu stricto.
Head and sholders have silverish powder, which is not the case in Hilarella.
Head is different from Paragusia.
Furthermore I have the impression it is a small specimen (comparing to the grains of sand) which fits with Taxigramma.

Yes, the specimen was small. Thank you very much!
