If I'm not wrong, it is a male of Piezura graminicola (Fanniidae).

Which is why I thought it was a Muscid,

My thanks to you both, assuming Stephen is correct that is the 701st diptera name for Wetland Kerkini, however there are a lot of species names sitting on collaborators PC still, and perhaps even more un-named material.
