I found this fly near the little village of Salbertrand in Susa Valley, Piedmont (Italy) at 1000 mt above sea level, on April 24th, 2017. Is it identifiable?

Hello,

It look more like Pollenia sp. (Calliphoridae).

P-Y:)

It is.
Note the petiole in the wing, suggesting something in the direction of P. atramentaria.
