This fly was about 7-8 mm. It was close to Bothria frontosa females but I suppose this is Not male of that species. Perhaps Lypha?

Third antennal segment seems a bit long for Lypha

The shaded r-m vein made me think it didn't look like Lypha but I am not sure what it might be - perhaps a Ramonda? Would be nice to see the head better :)

Thanks for looking at my pictures Theo and Chris

I will post a crop of each head to see if it is possible to see some more details.

Hmm, I don't know, sorry - not Wagneriini because I can't see enough parafacial bristles.
