Hello together,
i take the picture of these fly in 10 June 2010 Kokkola / Finland.
It is about 8 mm long. I search the name.

Well, I try, though it is difficult to discriminate between E. sepulchralis and E. aeneus. This seems to be a male (tapering abdomen) but has widely separated eyes, resembling a female - a character of E. sepulchralis. In this species, the abdomen should not be entirely shiny (there might be lateral matt spots in the photo), and the eyes should be entirely hairy (not only in the upper part), which I think I see. So E. sepulchralis would fit best
