Hello Josef, this is a Tachinidae, I think Erycilla ferruginea.

Thank you Stephane! I still have so much to learn. By the way, I was so sure to have a Mydea corni, female. Best regards, Josef |

The vein M1+2 is bent, so not Mydaea, ant too bent anyway for a Muscidae (Musca spp. can have bent of M almost like this). But it's true this fly reminds of some Mydaea or better, Phaonia angelicae.
Stephane. |
