Edith, try again:
yes, apex of scutellum yellowish
yes/no, M curved, but very slightly
So ...

So I'm a little stupid and have just one book to id my fly :(
And I m sure it is not a tachinidae, not an Anthomyiidae, not else sarcophagidae so as I'm a good player, I would say Muscidae and many of my Phaonia have apex of scutellum yellowish.
be lenient with me please, I ID fly just for one year and it is really difficult

I think it was Muscina but St?phane you said "Muscidae, Muscina (gently bent M + red tip of scutellum)." This one has a apex of scutellum yellowish :(
I noted red or yellow allright ?
Thank Nikita and St?phane ;)
Jorge NON c'est pas facile :p
