Possibly, although the wings look a little light. You'll need to relax it and pull out the genitalia to be sure, although I think yours is a female?

I ended to griseola by following the Rozkosnys key: - Mesopleuron at most with several hairs along posterior margin - Mid frontal stripe short - Mesopleuron with hairs along posterior margin - Whitish band along costal margin of wing absent - Arista plumose but the hairs short - Fore tibia and femur darkened - Cross-veins mostly infuscated There are more details in the key but these are the main ones. I have not seen this species before, so I might be wrong too. These Pherbellias are sometimens very tricky for me  Thank's Jari |

You are right in calling it griseola.
