Possibly. The Meso- and South American fauna has several groups with very few (and usually rare) rpresentatives here in Europa. Still, this one gives me a Bombyliidae impression.

I'm agree with Paul, not Empididae.

After PhotoShopping it there is a definite curve on the proboscis at the top ... but very straight wing veins.
