I'd say, Keroplatidae/Orfeliini.

Macrorrhyncha flava? The group of Orfeliini with long mouthparts was reviewed by Matile in 1975: https://doi.org/1...5.12278548.

Thank you very much Jürgen - Thank you very much John.
I'll change headline to "Macrorryncha flava?" Perhaps an expert confirms this ID, I hope.
