 Pedicel is black: rubescens or prompta - I think it's P. prompta.
EDIT NOT Peleteria

 Peleteria genus is not supposed to have parafacial setae (I don't see it...) and bare eyes ?

 Thanks! Not Peleteria - could be a female Linnaemyia vulpina.

 Have a nice evening everyone. Thank you for the answer of a female Linnaemya vulpina. It matches the yellow area between the eyes much better.
Kind regards Karl.
