It may be imagination, but I think I can make out dorsal preapical bristles on the legs, which would indicate these are not Chyromyidae. Also the female appears to have eversible glands on the abdomen, a feature that is known in the Lauxaniidae, but not (as far as I am aware) in the Chyromyidae.

I also think Lauxaniidae.
