Hi Eugène,
this is not Scathophaga suilla since it has strong ad on f3 (males don't have any ad on f3). This is either
S. inquinata or
S. lutaria.

I saw in the gallery
S. inquinata has an ad setae on fore tibia,
S. lutaria does not seem to have one.
So I propose
S. inquinata (male)

Both species have ad on t1. The difference is in the male sternite 5 and pilosity colour on abdomen.

OK Stephane, it will stay
