Hello, This Tachinid emerged from a Carcharodus alceae pupa in Provence (Southern France). Is its genus at least IDable with these pics? 7 mm; 26.viii; La Ciotat (13 France)   
Greetings from Provence |

Possibly Phryxe but I'd need the specimen to really say for sure and to go further

Thank you Chris. It's the only Tachinid I collected, so it would feel too lonely if I send it

Definitely not Phryxe, but I am not going to guess what it is.... Theo |

Hello, A few years later... I found this paper: Cerretti P, Tschorsnig H-P, Lopresti M, Giovanni FD. MOSCHweb — a matrix-based interactive key to the genera of the Palaearctic Tachinidae (Insecta, Diptera). ZooKeys. 2012;(205):5-18. doi:10.3897/zookeys.205.3409. and using its interactive key I get to Thecocarcelia. A member of the french forum insect.org mentioned a key to species by Cerretti which led us to Thecocarcelia trichops Herting, 1967. Greetings from Provence |
