I'd say Neuroptera. Perhaps Nemopteridae or something related with elongate, narrow hind wings.

It is a female of a species of probably the genus Dielocroce in the family Nemopteridae.
For further ID, one needs the insect for a microscopic study.

Great - remember that this area is just for flies though but we do have an 'other insects' area, which I will move this to Smile
