Well, looks like
C.vomitoria to me - that specific brownish "beard" makes it quite easily distinguishable ;)

There are many more species in Finland then just vomitoria or vicina.
This is genarum or lookalike:
the calyptra is hardly darkened.
If you have more pictures, I could try to be more affirmative

Thanks Andrius and Theo, here are more photo's. If some place is especially needed I can look if I can find it in the other 4 photo's, which unfortunatly are mostly from same direction as these and here is the only one from above.

Last picture, the last: the basal humeral bristles stand clearly in a triangle, so definitely genarum-group. Very similar species.
I think this is genarum, given the relatively short hairs on arista.
The reddish hairs on occiput confuse me though, my material is all black (Siberia)

Thanks Theo, I try to keep my eyes open to get more photo's of this group. This one I somehow missed totally in the field and got suprised when I found out it was Calliphora I took photo's of.
