I think this is not Polietes. Could be a female Muscina. Note that the tip of the scutellum is normally red in this species. The lack of the red spot may indicate that this is a rather atypical individual or that this is a different species. A lateral shot would help further to nail the genus.

The M-Cu is not enough slanted and only 2 post ac. I think it's Phaonia.
