This hover fly was found a few days ago in Central Greece.
Any help with the identification would be appreciated.

Maybe some kind of Pipizella? I still haven't figured this out.

Looks like Heringia or Neocnemodon spec. female.

The broad hind tarsi could point towards Neocnemodon latitarsis.

Neocnemodon latitarsis would have almost no dust spots - and this specimen has very characteristic ones ("wedge shaped" as mentioned in Bot/Van de Meutter for H. heringi); plus the third antennal segment that is longer then what we would expect in Neocnemodon, hence we arrive at Heringia
