Looks like an
Exorista spp. (possibly the
rustica group) :)
The mustard-yellow face, ruff of white hairs behind the head, slightly elongated abdomen, and parafacial bristles reaching down to 2/3 of antenna 3 are all quite distinctive :) If it is a male then it should be easy to identify using the genitalia and sternites.
