This is a lateral view, Rafael.
Dorsal view is not well visible here. Dorsal view show us the wings from above, scutum, scutellum (see overviews in thoracic setae for example), and show us the upper part of head (also from above). Ventral view refers to the womb of fly. Smile

No, I didn't tell the photo doesn't help. Just I don't know this fly. I'm pretty sure that someone will give you even the species. Smile

Pls discard my missinterpretation, I thought you were joking. The fact is when I read your reply and afterwards read mine I've noticed my error. Anyway thanks for your rectification.
I think I'll have to change my photo-habbits and go direct to get better views of these creatures.

that's ok. No problem, Rafael. As you see it is a Psilidae fly. Louis was pretty right. Smile
Thanks Kahis. Wink
