Hi, this Tachinid was found in June, E-Hungary. About the size of a bigger Sarcophaga. I have a specimen also, can take photos if needed. Thanks!

You can skip the 'possibly'. Very typical species. Theo |

Thanks for both of You. It really has smaller eyes compared to most calyptrata, as the name suggests. I found that it parasites Scarabaeidae larvae - true? |
