Tachinidae Macquartia sp? Just a guess really.

I'd suggest Rhinophora lepida (Rhinophoridae) Why? - The angle of the posterior cross-vein (m-cu) is very steep (meeting vein M at 90 degrees) and this fly has tiny feet - it's always worth considering Rhinophoridae if you have a small tachind-like fly with very small feet.  [Now all I need is for Theo to tell me it's a tachinid!  ]

well it does look very like the example of R. lepida in Bioimages apart from not having such strong lighter markings on the abdomen. |
