Hello
I’m not even sure of the family for this male ... Muscidae, Tachinidae, Calliphoridae ....
So thank you in advance for your help

Tachinidae. Calliphoridae do not have hairy eyes. Muscidae with bent vein M and hairy eyes have fewer postsutural acrostichals.

Thank you, John, is it possible to determine the genus, even the species?

Change the title to "Tachinidae" to attract the attention of Theo Zeegers

Yes, it is a Tachinid: Macquartia viridana or dispar.
Could you provide a picture of the abdomen obliquely from behind ( so 45 degrees view in the abdomen ) ?

Sorry, obliquely from behind, so symmetrical. I need to see the pattern of dusting on the tergites.

Thank you, the specimen having been preserved in alcohol, I am not sure that the "rot" is still visible, it is very kind of you to allow me to try to put a name on this Diptera.
Best regards

I am not sure. Most likely M. dispar. I think the alkohol messed up the abdominal pattern.
