Seems to have the "Peleteria bristles", so Peleteria or Deopalpus (tribe Tachinini). |

Peleteria has thin palps. Deopalpus has none. America has many Tachinini with modified palps, from as long as thorax to totally absent. Here is the North American long-palped species: http://bugguide.n...11/bgimage. |

Palps are not visible I guess, so we may make it uncertain OK. Thank you for your reaction John! Regards, Hedy |
