I agree
with your choice of genus. A few species in that genus though - best if a dipteran came along to help you out there.

Exoprosopa, certainly. I am leaning toward agassizii or bifurca, but we may not be able to go further with just a picture. We could create an "Exoprosopa fasciata-group" page and put it there.

Exoprosopa fasciata-group
I can make the page if you want it. Are there any other photos to put in there? Which species would it include?

New Page
The fasciata group includes those species with the wing color along the leading edge. Of those posted on our pages, it would include: fasciata, rostrifera, argentifasciata, bifurca, brevirostris, and this fly. When they turn up, we can add: dodrans, dodrina, agassizii, pardus, etc.
