This fly with body 3-4 mm was found near edge of a field.
Any suggestion of family and perhaps genus would be nice

Seems to be Anthomyiidae. The protruding face reminds me of Leucophora; the antennae, however, look quite big... Let's see if there are better guesses :).

Thanks for your suggestion Sundew.

I thought of Anthomyyidae too but the protruduíng face and big antennae seemes not to fit.

Have a look at http://www.dipter...ad_id=5608. Maybe this is Phorbia too?
