Jorge, you've got it !
The third picture is particulary interesting because it shows the setulose apical third of R1 vein, which characaterize the genus, and even the sub-familly !
A. rohrelliformis is the unique member. I still haven't found this muscid, one of my favourite.

hmm.. I just read that this species is rare due the short adult life.
