I'm not sure about this ID, the stripes don't look the same.

  I am still investigating, checking 100s of photos - I'm awaiting as well help from a dipterists forum - for the time being it seems to be best match though. Posted 10 years ago

      This is! Great help! Unfortunately I didn't get help from the Dipterists forum, cause I didn't manage to upload the photo - something wrong with the software.
      Thanks for your help! Posted 10 years ago
