It isn't Anthomyiidae, but Muscidae. Might be a Coenosia spec.
Best wishes, Niels-Jan Dek

I don't think it's Coenosia, which normally have only one presutural dc.

I think you are right with Lispocephala, I didn't notice the presutural dc. The darkened crossveins point in that direction too, but I think with pictures only you can't ID these.
Best wishes, Niels-Jan Dek
