I think this could be Rhodesiella, but I'm not a chloropid specialist.

Can you please ask any specialist in this family to have his opinion?

Chloropidae, Rhodesiellinae: Rhodesiella sp. is correct. Long stiff divergent and widely spaced apical scutellar bristles, rugose and elongate scutellum as in most Oriental Rhodesiella spp.
