I see... There was an interesting thread some years ago (https://www.dipte...d_id=59905), and there are some similarities between the flies. So Pneumia nubila and P. trivialis might be good guesses. However, I cannot see this particular facial hair tuft. The only (bad) picture that shows the face is given below - the face is hairy, but not so spectacularly. So it could be a female of P. nubila or a male of P. trivialis, but the latter is said to be much more grey and less brown. Alas, this must remain speculation.
Many thanks, Sundew
