Hmm, does the fly really have no median marginals on T1+2? And does it have any bristles on R1 and R4+5 to r-m? It looks eminently identifiable but it doesn't ring any bells here.

The wing venation (fold to bend M) suggests Exoristini, and then the ocellar bristles are placed at level of anterior ocellus
Bessa.
And since there are distinct discal setae:
Bessa selecta
Nice pictures, as always

Many thanks Chris and Theo (I still hope that one day I'll be able to post my own suggestions and not only pictures ;)).
