Hmm, looks like a male sarcophagid :)

Yes, it looks, but it is not. This is a male Anthomyiidae, my guess would be Egle sp.

But of cource...I could be wrong ;)

I agree with Egle.
Note sharply protruding peristomal margin.
Note also 26 April in Russia

OK!
I thought that Egle sp. always had the parafacial touching, (only two species known in the Netherlands, and both touching), but in the key indeed there are species with parafacial broader.
And 26 April is indeed early, but Leucophora i have seen also early (looking for wasp to come out of the ground)

Learned again...:)
