Found near a stream today. Seemed to be a fresh one.

It definitely reminds me of Euphyllophila, which I got in NEpal. I would need a lateral shot to be more sure. It still might be some odd Dexiini Theo |

Thanks, that confirmes my suggestion NB: I'm not an expert in Oriental Tachinidae, so it might be a close relative.; However. Euphyllophila is rather peculiar and aberrant genus, so .... Theo |
