Hi Lema, we need pictures from better positions, ie. really dorsal and really lateral. For starters, I need to see the wing venation.
And do you know the host ?

Thanks

Theo

Theo, will these photos be better. I don't have better ones. I don't know the host. I found this dead caterpillar ( I think it belong to Erebidae but not sure) from which this fly emerge.

Maybe I was wrong about caterpillar. Caterpillar remains was small, Could also be a Lycaenidae. And another photo of fly.
