Nick.. that is not a surprise to me. :( The permissions are more for getting money.. than to protect really the places. I have seen so many "protetect places" and in 100 m there are buildings...

Well, I'm sorry to say but the above fly is not a Schineria tergestina....
It is another genus. It is a Brachymera letochai...

According to the Tschorsnig : "Brachymera letochai, no doubt.

Schineria tergestina differs (in the characters which can be seen on
the photos - there are more differences of course) from Brachymera
letochai by the elongated first and second aristal segments, the
elongated pedicel (only slightly shorter than the first flagellomere),
the different shape of the head (frons not prominent at antennal base,
upper part of back of head less convex), shorter thoracic and
abdominal bristles (which are very long and strong in Brachymera)."
