The wing venation is wrong for Hammerschmidtia : this is a Brachyopa.

Brachyopa testacea makes sense?

Thanks Stephane!

Hi,
Can anybody confirm if this is a Brachyopa testacea?

if length is 6.5 to 8 mm, and hairs of arista about three times longer than thickness of arista at base, than it should be B. testacea.
(G. vittata is much bigger and also much rarer)
