It is likely a Sarcophaga (Sarcophaga) sp male. Most large Sarcophagids belong to this group. The jizz includes golden face, large size and strong bristles at the end of tergite 3 (just visible here). There are many commonish species in this group. The value of the various forms as species identified by genitalia is vague in my experience, there are lots of intermediates among the more typical genitalia.
