Difficult to say without the other body parts but one species with two dorsal setae, a posterodorsal seta at the level of AND about half the length of the basal dorsal seta, and without anteroventral setae on T2 is
L. scutellata.

Hi, I'm almost sure that this is the specimen. But if it does not fit I'll photograph once more the specimen.
What is the spiral inside the leg on first pic?

Don't now about the spiral (muscle, tendon?) but the fly certainly is not
L. scutellata as the scutellum is not black. Other details are too blurry to go further.
