those antennae seem Keroplatidae to me; try Keroplatinae: Keroplatus (R4 to R1), Cerotelion (R4 to Costa)... |

Thanks for the suggestion. Was that family split from Mycetophilidae? A lot of the web resources leave Keroplatus there. I see that the genus occurs in this area with a few species but could find no images to compare with. |

I do not think this is Keroplatus, as that genus has generally much more broadened antennal segments. I cannot see enough details to put a genus name on, though. Paul - - - - Paul Beuk on https://diptera.info |
