Keyed to Neodexiopsis using the Manual of the Nearctic Diptera muscid key; to the N. ovata group using Huckett's 1934 key to this genus; and to N. ovata using Snyder's 1958 review of this species group.

I think that's the right ID but would appreciate some expert input. Thanks in advance

Regards
Steve

infuscation of the fore femur is incomplete and appears consistent with Snyder's description (couplet 8 and page 22) as seen in the head-on image
