Pollenia more likely, but the flash makes the colors artificially metallic.

I'm with Stephane, however, it might be one of those dark Pollenia's. The topcell seems to be closed.

Pollenia agreed, now that I take a second look. You can just make out what could be the golden hair on the sides of the thorax too.
