Hello,
I'm french.
I think that this fly is a Rhinophoridae.
Can you tell me what is its species ?
Thank you.

Hi,
I think, more likely Sarcophagidae.

I'd go with Nicolas' original suggestion and say rhinophoridae as the wing has a petiole where the two long veins join. If this was Uk I'd say
Stevenia , probably
deceptoria

No, it is Sarc.
The petiole must be an artefact of the not-good picture (I don't see it on the other one).
The red eyes and dust pattern on thorax and abdomen all have a Sarc-jizz.
Moreover, the cayptra are large.
Deceptoria would need to show yellow hind margins on tergites, even at this quality.
All other Stevenia are much blacker.

Hi !
Theo, I am not sure the petiole would be an artefact :

I think the petiole shows clearly on both wings, and I feel it's likely to be a
Stevenia, but I doubt we can say for sure which species from these photos.

The petiole is solid, indeed , on the blowup.
Thanks
