Hi dipterafriends!

I found an unidentified fly in my collection. Photos were taken in my own garden. This fly often visits my flowers in last autumn. I brought for you four images from this questionable fly. Tachinids have M vein on their wings and I can't see this remarkable sign on the wings of this fly. According to this, it is a Muscid or I cannot distinguish them from each other well. I hope an expert will look at these images and able to ID them.

It is Muscidae.
Vein M rounded curved forward, scutellum without arical yellow. So, I think it is Stomoxys calcitrans with not visible long proboscis.
