no visible hairs eliminates pediculata. anyway because the gena doesn't match.
i think that this is either Pollenia angustigena or Pollenia hungarica. I see yellow pv on femur 3. Accroding to Dr. Rognes, the ventral side of tergite 3 will have mostly black hairs on Pollenia angustigena. If you see mostly yellow/golden hairs, then it will be Pollenia hungarica. Genitalia is best for Pollenia of the rudis group.
