This poor fly was attacked by a fungus. I think it belongs to the family Anthomyidae. Is that correct? Is it possible to go beyond family level?

Anthomyiidae with Entomophthora muscae.

Thank youSmile. Is it possible to go any further, despite the fly being damage?
Paul, in these cases of flies infected by fungi is it always E. muscae, or could it be another species of Entomophtora?
