Hello,

A Tachinidae found in North of France, Clairmarais, the 30 april 2016, on a Tree stump, in a deciduous forest, in a area with Gymnocheta viridis and Tachina ursina
Maybe a female Nemorilla floralis ?


Greetings,

Thomas

No.
It reminds me of Cyzenis jucunda, pretty rare.
I can't check my collection now.
Send me a PM as reminder in two weeks time.

Is the host known? With C. albicans parasitizing O. brumata I would expect C. jucunda to use a different species.
