I captured this tachinid in Barcelos, Portugal on the last 20th of September. To me it looks like a female Nemoraea pellucida but I think it is a bit small for this species. What do you think? size: around 11 mm    |

It looks familiar - best confirm from Theo though because I have only seen the male  |

Most definitely female Nemoraea. It can be quite small, like 11 mm. Not common but not really unusual either. Third antennal segment is different from all other Eurithia / Tachina / ... Theo |
