Eliozeta or Clytiomyia - my best guess would be the former  Do you have any more angles? Failing that get a net on any tachinid that moves

My net broke! Disaster!!! So very few specimens taken. I had to resort to collecting stuff out of the swimming pool filters! Got a few Tachinids, but not many

Argghhhh!!!! It's a tragedy ... can you maybe get one from the nearest British Embassy ... tell them it's an emergency and they need to fly something in on the overnight!

It was officially a "family holiday" with flies taking a back seat. None - the - less I sneaked a net and a few tubes along, but did not take a spare net or two, as I usually would. At least I have not got loads of specimens to pin!! Scant consolation though.
