Nikita : in Faune de France n° 6 by Seguy, I have only one species with black legs, cuillerons of different length and +/- 6mm !
Pegoplata palposa
I measured the specimen on picture : +/- 6mm !!!
Hope this is it !

Knowing that my knowledge of Anthomyiid are very limited, I asked Dr. Verner Michelsen, Anthomyiid expert.
It is
Paregle audacula
