Good day!
I found this fly in Linz, Austria yesterday. Could this be of the genus Egle?
Thanks and all the best!

I used the key to "british anthomyiidae"(not sure who wrote it).
https://diptera-in-beeld.nl/Ref-Key%20British%20Anthomyiidae.pdf
It led me to the genus Botanophila. Does anyone have any opinions on whether this could be accurate?
