"NETHERLANDS: NB, Udenhout, de Brand, 25.iv-2.v.2020, malaise trap"

I not sure where this specimen, functioning as transportation for a Phthiraptera, belongs. Lacking large bristles at the last abdominal segments, I'm inclined to call this a calliphorid, but I'm not sure at all.
The specimen is photographed while floating in alcohol.
