Hello flyforum,

I was wondering if this fly is Tachina fera?

It is almost a year ago I saw these kind of flies, now I am not sure of this is Tachina fera..

Well, in England I'd call it Tachina fera Grin but there are alternatives in Europe - eg. T.magnicornis and I'd probably defer to someone like Theo to have the final word - i'll bookmark this for him to look at later Smile

Difficult to tell from the pictures.
Most likely fera, but somewhat intermediate.

Thank you for your comment Theo and Chris!

What detail of the fly makes it to a Tachina fera?
I have more pictures of this fly, also from other directions..
Perhabs that can shine a light on it?

I show you here the fly more from above, there you see the black stripe better on the abdomen

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
