Hello! A 5 mm fly from our garden yesterday (northwest Germany). Is Nyctia halterata correct?

It's a small sarcophagid but not Nyctia I think - the wing isn't shaded and the body isn't dark/shiny enough

With the bare eye I first thought it was a Rhinophorid, but on the PC I saw it must be Sarcophagidae. I did not have Nyctia halterata before. Would have been too nice...
