Well if the halteres are that prominent, please point them out to me. I still go for Symphyta (Tenthredinidae). But I've been totally wrong in other casesSad.

It's Symphita, one of the small orange species. Indeed no halteres visible. Instead, a bit of a hind wing seems to stick out above the abdomen...

Is "Symphita" a genus indeed? Otherwise, if you speak of the suborder Symphyta (which I suppose, the sawflies), you need not use italics, and you have to replace the i with an y.

A good view of the wings is mostly needed to identify sawflies. At species level you have many chance that you need to check the genitals to be sure.
