Attracted by light at night. About 9-10 mm. Abdomen orange with dark grey in the middle. Legs orange. Tachinidae, maybe Solieria fenestrata ?

Dexia rustica?

Solieria would not have a right-angled bend in vein M.

Thank you very much for your suggestion, which matches indeed much better...

So I think this is a male, with the orange abdomen...

This is a male – long claws, narrow frons, no proclinate orbitals.
