I suppose it will be imposibble to go further. Thank you.

Anal vein is long, so possibly Anthomyiidae. Excuse me for widening, not narrowing range of possibilities.

The wing is folded so the vein looks longer than it is. I think I see 4 postsutural dorsocentrals, which rules out Anthomyiidae. The very few species with 4 post dc are hairier overall. The pattern on the thorax and the hairy eyes also point to Muscidae.

Considering a lot of ac setae; hairy eyes and thoracic pattern the choice may be narrowed.
It is either Polietes (lardarius?) or Phaonia (trimaculata?)
