Really! Nobody has any idea? Can't believe it ! Wink
Or is it so obvious that you are actually sending a silent message for me to do some basic homework on this ID ? Shock

I think it is not obviuos. In fact this is a rather indistinct fly for which only a single view is provided. It is Fanniidae/Anthomyiidae/Muscidae. That is all I can reasonanbly say.

Probably Muscidae of the Spilogona - Limnophora group of genera.

There is a hint of a dark triangular mark on the abdomen which suggests Spilogona/Limnophora, as Kahis says, but without a more detailed shot, it's difficult to say more, especially as it's a female.

Thanks a lot, all!
I fully realize how tough it is, especially with only one live photo (I have a few, but all from the same angle) with a modicum of detail. It's already more than I was hoping for, to say the truth.
