The thorax with a dark median stripe between acrostichals - so I would say P. vagabunda is worth considering?
But genitail are the only sure way with most of these

I think the dark median stripe in P. vagabunda is much more distinctive. I wouldn't dare to go further than Pollenia sp.

Mmm.. I would be happy with
Pollenia cf. vagabunda.
I have two male
vagabunda specimen, and the stripe is not as clear as the one in the photo, but content to stand corrected.
would welcome others thoughts, or specimens?
