Hi, this fly was forgotten and found again this weekend - I don't know where I collectd it, maybe Debrecen or Miskolc, so E- or NE Hungary. ~8 mm. What could it be?

It could be ... best forgotten! Wink

Or at least cleaned up a bit - soak it in ethyl acetate or acetone overnight, then let it dry off - with luck the colour will be restored. Then post another photo as "Mystery tachinid or rhinophorid" to get Chris or Theo to look at it.
