It should be a female
Hydrotaea dentipes, because of the shiny ocelar triangle and slightly apically bent M1+2, but it should also have an ad on mid tibia (I can't see it) and be more dusted, so I have a little doubt...

You have a quite high-yielding dead mouse :D! What did it die of ? (Hopefully of old age...)

Well, lets just say it died from trespassing..
Roger, there is a fjord 50m over the hill so I think it would have made it there if it really wanted. :D

I checked all pics no ad on either side, so small chance they are broken.

Stephane, can I ask if H. similis is ruled out? If so is it bacause of the number of anteroventrals on the hind tibia? Which I am not even sure I see in my pics :D

I found two female species of Hydrotaea similis in your flies you send me.
So i made some photos of the ocelli triangle of both...
The ocelli triangle of H.similis seems longer and more yellowish dusted
Both species are very simular and a mistake is easy to make (almost put them away as H.dentipes..:S)
Both species of H.similis have 4 av on t3...
