I think this must be a Solieria sp. but it looks like a female so we can't go further :( Males are do-able though so see if you can catch a few more :)

PS: I am thinking Solieria mainly because of: the orange colour of body and legs; lack of median discal bristles on T3 & T4; 2 pairs of scutellar bristles.
