Perhaps a tachinidae fly?...

the images are very blurry... and pixeled... but perhaps it could be possible to reach genus level.

doesn't look very like a tachinid - can you see if it has a sub-scutellum? :|

I suspect this is a lauxaniid - for example see http://www.dipter...hoto_id=90.
If it was a tachinid, we would expect to see a bend in vein M (with the exceptions I mentioned in my final post in thread http://www.dipter...ad_id=3050)
