It isn't Chloropidae, but Ephydridae, I think Gymnomyzini

The description of this specimen on " Faune de France n°28 " and drawings correspond to Mosillus.
In Europe one only species subsultans.
Is it good?

Mosillus subsultans is distinguished from congeners by the following combination of characters: mesonotum smooth, mostly shining black, essentially bare of microtomentum even if microsculptured; all tibiae black; hind basitarsus yellowish-orange; if so - looks like M.subsultans.
