My specimen has 2 post ia. But does your instance have 3 post ia? The color of the abdomen varies depending on the lighting and it can become very green.

Yes, my fly also has 2 post ia! The first images made me think that the first bristles were broken. But it really seems our flies are the same species. What is the size of your specimen? Mine is conspicuously big - like the big females of Calliphora vicina.

I've measured the oaken leaf on which it sat and the fly is 17-19 mm long!

I am sorry to bother, but I am still not convinced.
On the left side, you can see a pore at the locality of the first post IA, suggesting it has been present but is broken off.

Thanks for "bothering", Theo TumbsUp
I think, the Mordovian fly's first post ia looks very similiar so another photo of the thorax could perhaps help to see the pore.
What still remains is the size - ~18 mm would be a Cynomya's max. length. Onesia should have max. 12 mm?
