This fly was swept on 22.vii.2020 from a local nature reserve in south Surrey (England) - wetland, alder carr, woodland etc. I originally assumed Tachinidae due to what I thought was a developed postscutellum, however I don't think the wing venation is right and I can't make out hypopleural bristles. Any help even getting to family would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Have a look at Scathophagidae.
