Probably Triathria
I can't see the arista clearly, but the wing veins have lots of hairs and the bend in M is obtuse and near wing margin. This is probably Triarthria setipennis.

Moved
Moved from Compsilura concinnata. According to images at diptera.info, Compsilura concinnata has four dorsocentral setae rather than the three visible here.
