Hello every body

Is it possible to identify this fly ? I think it is close to Cylindromyia interrupta, but there are similar species (auriceps, intermedia, pusilla...). I don't know if there are crossed scutellar apical bristles.

Found in a calcareous grassland, on Eryngium campestre.
Valpuiseaux, Ile-de-France, France
date : 11/08/2018
size : 8 to 10 mm
