I assume it's Tachinidae, but then what ...

Hard for me to say ... not Phryxe I think ... it looks long and dark so maybe Lydella, but it's a very wild guess Smile

Lydella seems a good suggestion.
It is a female, which makes it very difficult to ID from picture.
The wing venation suggests L. stabulans, however, the length of the third antennal segment more L. thompsoni.

So I'd need to see the specimen, to be more precise
