I am grateful to both for your help.
As I have no knowledge to find out, try to modify the title to guide the identification.
If missing details for the identification, I can upload more pictures.
best regards.

My money would be on Sarcophagidae - red eyes & 3 black stripes on the thorax ... and if so then it'll be virtually impossible to go further from a photo ;)

My thanks ChrisR.
Certainly, I regret that no progress can be made more identification. The midge was very good posing for me ...
A greeting

Congratulations jorgemotalmeida. You guessed it. I have learned something: red eyes & 3 black stripes on the thorax ...>>> sarcofagidae .... and hence it is difficult to pass ...:|

I did not guess. I had the gut feeling it was it precisely Sarco due the combo of features we can find on them: traffic red eyes, 3 strong and long stripes on scutum, the general jizz, as well. ;) But there are pitfalls as Exorista larvarum... ;) (very sarcophagidish fly but a REAL Tachinidae) for example.
