I'm thinking Orthonevra on this one - there's a horizontal stripe in the eye and the thoracic patterns, antennal shape, and wing veination look right to me. I think there's just the horizontal stripe there, so something in the pictipennis group (consistent with location as well, wrong eyes for nitida)?

(I also looked at Chrysotoxum - right antennae, wrong wings; Mixogaster - wrong abdomen; Spilomyia - I don't see a spur and the shape seems wrong; and Eumerus - wrong wings)
