I have posted this image on the Japanese Diptera Forum, but so far did not get any response. What family does this fly belong to? Can U suggest genus?

Reminds me of a freshly emerged Lauxaniidae...

Thx. I thought also of Lauxaniidae, but I was unsure, since the head of this fly is rather different from any Lauxaniidae I had seen before.
