Hello!

Location: Hungary, montane area

I found this one yesterday at a shady skirts of forest with dense growth of various plants alongside. It has strong bristles on abdomen which typical of Tachinids but such a wing venation is rather unusual of that family. Small sized, ~5-7mm long.

Phania funesta I think.

Looks right to me - the silvery face, shiny black body and wide-spread wings are very distinctive from any angle :D
