Do you have more angles? A dorsal shot and a few more of the legs would be useful :)

Hmm, I can't see enough really - need to see if there is a pv bristle on the hind tibia and whether it has apical scutellars etc. But perhaps Theo will see something he recognizes? :)

I think I can see pv bristle on hind tibia and apicals on scutellum, in this case its Cylindromya auriceps

We don't need all these leg bristles, the spinulae on venter, the dust pattern on thorax and the presence of 2 pairs of scutellar bristles clearly show a female of auriceps, as already mentioned by Erikas.
