Rhinophoridae family? Not sure!

Any clues about genus?

Taken today in a farm. Silgueiros - Viseu - PORTUGAL.

Looks like family Tachinidae - but not sure which genus Smile

My first impression, which is often but not always the best, was that of the Dexiini (Tachinidae). The wing venation is quite peculiar: a long appendix to bend of vein M and the topcel apparently closed or even stalked. This suggests Estheria.

Not sure though, need to see the head.
