With a straight median vein it should be a muscid or anthomyid ... certainly not a tachinid ;)

Hi,
this is for sure the best picture ever taken of the uncommon anthomyiid Chirosia griseifrons. The larva expectedly feed on the fern Athyrium filix-femina, the only fern on which I have observed males aggregating in station-taking behaviour.
