Neomyia is correct, but this is the 2nd European species, Neomyia viridescens. The two species are easily separated by the setae on the back of the fly: Neomyia viridescens has four dorsocentral setae behind the suture, cornicina has three. viridescens lack presutural acrostichal setae; there are no long setae betwee the dorsocentral rows.
