Hi Nikita,
Haha. perfect photo, but I do need a little more of the wingpattern to be able to identify it, and then I can perhaps also see wether there are only two or four bristles on the scutellum.
But it should be either
Campiglossa or
Dioxyna.

Wings.
Scutellum with two strong setas.

Hi Nikita,
You're not fooling me! The pinned one is a female and therefore not the exact same specimen as the first photo!
The pinned one is
Dioxyna bidentis. It is very well possible that the animal on the first photo is the same species.
Best wishes,
John

Thank you,
