Well, it is sure Mintho is incorrect (has reddish sidemarkings, black-and-white thorax....).
First impression is that it is Sarcophagidae.

Sorry to disappoint you

We have had Sarcs with stronger setae.

The third antennal segment, however, is a bit long for a Sarcophagidae.
The pic is not good enough to say much more. I can't see if the eyes are hairy. If so, and if a spring species, it might be Phorocera.
But a lateral headshot would help !

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
