Homoneura incerta
I am astonished to be able to identify this to species from a photograph, but it is Homoneura incerta (Malloch). A couple of distinctive wing features give it away - i.e., placement of spots, and size of the apical R2+3 spot.

I'm crossing my fingers, because I am not a "fly guy", but this looks correct.
