Tribe Tachinini. Are the eyes haired? Jurinella has hairy eyes. Curran reviewed this group: Curran, C.H. 1947. New and little known American Tachinidae. Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History 89: 45–122. https://digitalli...efee2d4af2 He noted that some species of Amicrotrichoma and Oharamyia (as Lindigia) could easily be confused with Jurinella. |

Thanks. Eyes looks like hairless in the photos. I will check these other genera. Edit; Google don't give me any result for Amicrotrichoma. It's correctly spelled? The very little results by Oharamyia could match. Edited by Isidro on 25-10-2023 18:10 |

I spelled the genus name wrong. Amicrotrichomma. The name comes in part from Greek ὄμμα. |

There are several tropical genera with names derived from Jurinia and several more with type species originally described in Jurinia. |

Thanks. I don't find any image of Amicrotrichomma and the few results by Jurinia looks like different. Jurinella and Oharamyia looks like better candidates. |
