I believe it is C. rescita Walker, 1861, widespread species from Mexico and Cuba to Paraguay. The question is: it is Cyrtoneurina (as by http://www.diptera.org/NomenclatorSearch.php ) or Cyrtoneuropsis (as by Neotropical Muscidae by Carvalo, 2002)? What is correct? May be John knows.

The question is whether the genera are synonyms. If they are distinct then Cyrtoneuropsis rescita. Savage and Vockeroth separated them for the same reason as de Carvalho.
