Can anyone suggest a family for this fly? I'm pretty sure I've submitted something like this before, large hind femurs, but can't locate it. Light trap, Townsville.

Chloropidae, Rhodesiellinae: Rhodesiella Adams, 1905 is correct. Only two species were described and are known from the Australian continent: R. punctifrons Malloch, 1940 and R. regina Malloch, 1940. Nine further Australasian species are known from Guam, Hawaii, Fiji and New Guinea
