Per Dr. Michael Schauff, who thinks it may be Mymar taprobanicum.

Moved from Fairyflies.

Thanks!
Thanks for the quick tip. I'll remove my misleading Diptera guess (could only see two wings).

Wings...
The hind wings are very narrow in this group. You can see a portion of them sticking out at the base of the forewings.

Thanks again
I guess those odd wings just work because of their small size.
