Might be a small Sarcophaga sp (Sarcophagidae): http://www.dipter...ost_170113

Tristam is right: definitely a small Sarcophaga s.l. (like Helicophagella or so).

It is a female.

It is most likely Sarcophaga (Heteronychia) depressifrons, but I need a male for definite identification.

I agree, this is Sarcophaga (Heteronychia) depressifrons. Very characteristic in its small size and dark colour.
