This fly was present in my garden today (Koudekerke, Netherlands). It measures 9 mm.
Who is able to tell me the specius/genus?
I kept the fly in a glass so I could supply more details.

It's a sarcophagid but IDs are usually not possible without male genitalia :)

Do the wide eyes point out that it is a female?

This is Brachicoma devia (Paramacronychiinae, Sarcophagidae).
I would need the specimen to tell you its gender.
