Hello, I need a confirmation on this fly. Is it Chloromyia formosa? Help on this matter is very much appreciated.

Yes, but I cannot see the 2nd and 3rd pair of legs well. The wings are quite light brownish, but this perhaps this can vary a bit, so I am pretty sure it is formosa and not speciosa, which has more blackish wings.
