    The Fern, thanks for the input on the wing coverts, didn't know that one... it is M.cayanensis and not M.similis because M.similis would have a lighter black face mask and greener/olivier back, and this one shows the rusty margins on the primaries that are characteristic of Rusty-margined Fly...
