 Hi,
Today I met this Tachinid with badly worn wings. It is a bit dark for Tachina magnicornis, so I wonder what name it might get.
Thanks, Sundew

 My first guess was a melanistic Nowikia but I'm not sure - never seen one like that and the darkened r-m vein is odd Smile

 The eyes are hairy, so you are both off.

It is a male Ernestia rudis, indeed very worn.
