I've done some comparisons with P. angelicae, it has a few differences to this fly. For one, P. angelicae looks to have a pair of long ocellar bristles or in the region of the anterior ocelli. I can't see the halter on this fly, maybe it got broken? It's very obvious in angelicae.

Another, P. angelicae has pv on the mid tibiae and I think part of those would be visible if they were present.

This is one I named P. angelicae from 2010, I don't recall posting it for ID but I might have!
