NO, it doesn't. Head profile is very different in Thelaira
It is a Dexiini, most likely Dinera ferina, but I can't be sure.

On the second look I allso see that all Thelaira nigripes in galery has calypters colored yellow-orange. My image not. So, you are most likely right.
Thanks.

All
Thelaira spp. are characterized by having very large eyes (the
Dinera/
Dexia/
Billaea/
Estheria etc tend to have small eyes with a big gena) :)
