Found this interesting fly in Greece, Peloponnese on 21.V.2009 near Karyes. This female's body length is 26 mm. It took me long to find out which species it represents. Thanks to Engel's 1930 publication, where the original Gerstaecker's description in latin is given, now I'm certain of my determination thus I'm showing a photo of Laphria empyrea and its biotope for the first time on the web.
