Hi I found this fly in Silgueiros - Viseu in 29th March 2006. In the same place of Dalmannia conopid. It is Voriini, not sure about the genus.  EDIT: Title changed from "Tachinidae - Voriini - Voria or Athrycia?" to "Tachinidae - Voriini - Voria ruralis" Edited by jorgemotalmeida on 06-04-2008 11:13 |

Jorge, It is the genus Voria itself, and therefore V. ruralis. Theo |

It seems that the question was overlooked. Here it again: In Europe which are the other Voria besides ruralis? |

The Palearctic Manual also says Voria has only 1 species

I haven't seen any yet but I think they are fairly uncommon. Crosskey (1976) lists 3 species: facialis, fulvipes & siberita
