 Hello, I found this tachinid fly which I believe to be Tachina nupta, although I'm not entirely sure I can rule out T. casta. What do you think?

 I ruled out T. praeceps because I count three postsutural ia setae.

 Yes, that is convincing indeed.

I have no idea which species this is. It is a male with two proclinate orbitals and it is much too orange for magnicornis ...
