A Tachinidae found on the ground, in a Coniferous part in a mainly decidious forest, the 12 august 2015, in North of France, Cassel
Maybe a Phryxe ? but I'm not sure

Thanks you Theo ! Smile
Unfortunately, I haven't keep this specimen awkward
on the original pictures it's a bit blur, but there is at least no long hairs, I'm not sure if there is some short one but I would say the eyes seems to be bare

OK, I think it is Allophorocera.

But now the species...

It is an Allophorocera ferruginea, but indeed an unusual grey specimen.
I know there is quite some variation, but this is extreme.

Someven your common Tachinidae are special !

Thanks you, Theo Smile

I have found him just beside a piece of rotten Coniferous wood so maybe there was Tipulidae larva in it

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
