If I correct match, I think too, looks like Cecidomyiinae!

Sara, it was this one which is subfamily Cecidomyiidae (the same as the family) that looks to match, the R5 vein curves towards Cu.  I was wondering if that was now included in another subfamily as the reference was from 1918. http://cubits.org... |

Cecidomyiinae is defined by genital features, but "usually" has the base of Rs weak or absent (e.g. a stub not quite connecting R4+5 with the base of R). Also, all gall-making species belong to Cecidomyiinae. |

Compare Didactylomyia longimana (Felt, 1908). |
