I was just mentioning this in the previous post, this might be a candidate to Calliphoridae, and if so Lucilia. But ...

The fly has almost no bristles over the thorax and abdomen and the body is almost cylindrical, even to the abdomen. And I'm used to see calliphorids as a somehow flat fly and specially with a broad abdomen.
Maybe I haven't seen enough calliphorids Smile

Thank you

Your doubts are justified !
It seems to be a species of Chrysomyia, very different tribe (from Lucilia), but still the resemblance is striking at first glance.
