Hmm, I'm reasonably familiar with that species. This fly is much smaller and the head and abdomen are both the wrong shape.
How about Melinda gentilis?

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
