Hi All !
I pictured this specimen in my garden on 2023-05-23 in Belgium and could measure it on picture : 8,5mm.
As I can see with all these setae on the tergites, it must be a Tachinidae ...

Also it seems to be a female ?

Can we ID this specimen ???

Thank you very much for your comments and / or ID.
Note : if needed, I can add pictures for details ...

Hello Didier, it's a difficult genus - but in this case I'm fairly sure, that it's a male Meigenia dorsalis. Anyhow it would be wise to edit the thread's title to attract the expert.
