Hi Rune, it's not a Muscina (apex of scutellum should be red) and I think it is a Myospila meditabunda - from Manual of Central European Muscidae (Gregor, Rozkošný, Barták, Vaňhara), I haven't seen it yet.
Greetings, Eric Kloeckner

Hi Eric
excactly!
I know the M.levida should have a red scutellum tip, so that's
why I put a questionmark. The gap between M an R4+5 vein also seemd off.

Myospila meditabunda seems to be correct.
Thank you so much Eric TumbsUp
Best regards
--Rune
