The wing venation is wrong for
Hammerschmidtia : this is a
Brachyopa.

Brachyopa testacea makes sense?
Thanks Stephane!

if length is 6.5 to 8 mm, and hairs of arista about three times longer than thickness of arista at base, than it should be B. testacea.
(G. vittata is much bigger and also much rarer)
