I think it is either Phasia pusilla or Phasia barbifrons. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Yes, hard to say which it is but I'd guess pusilla one the basis that the area between the frontal bristles and the eye is silvery and seems devoid of hairs - plus pusilla has brown haltares and if this one had yellow we might possibly be able to see them in the photo.  |

I agree. This is pusilla (or, at least, a species in the subgenus Hyalomyia) Theo |
