Another Muscid. Can anyone suggest a genus for this female? Another one belonging to sf Muscinae?

Another view of the same fly.

I'm thinking Dasyphora sp (not albofasciata)

The description of Eudasyphora cyanicolor fits remarkably well, except that this fly seems to have 1 ac, which shouls meand that this is D. albofasciata. But the description for D. albofasciata does not fit.

Thx Susan for your input. I hope that Nikita will have a look at this, as soon as he is back in Russia.

I think Susan meant Dasyphora penicillata/pratorum, not Eudasyphora. I support the ID, because the fly doesn't have any presutural achrostical bristle, which Dasyphora albofasciata should have indeed. Perhaps you thought about prescutellar ac instead of presutural ?
