This Brachycera was found on the shore of a lake just outside Stockholm Sweden beginning of May. Is it possible to say what genus it is (or even species)? If important details don't show on the images it is possible to take additional photos since the specimen is preserved in alcohol.

Wing unfortunately I forgot to measure the wingspan, but if necessary I can check.
