I think it's Cylindromyia xylotina.

I can see it is something special, but xylotina should have much longer antenna. Could you show the ventral side ot first tergites ?

So, definitely in the brevicornis branche. Many bristles are broken off, but outer vertical looks quite strong. So why not female brevicornis ? Second segment of arista is somewhat out of focus, but looks elongated.

With these specimens from Malaise trap it is sometimes complicated. It's brevicornis, the genital part is broken hence this weird shape. Well done Theo, thank you.
