At a light.

Moved from Anthomyzidae.

Yes, this is Mumetopia occipitalis, a very widespread species in the Anthomyzidae.

Moved
Moved from Acalyptratae.

Mumetopia likely
Definitely an anthomyzid, and very likely Mumetopia (can't see the number of orbital bristles, which separates this genus from others).
