I love Tachinidae but I can't say they name, sorry. Near Paris, may 24th guenille attached the following image:  [99.78Kb] |

Looks a bit like Nemorilla floralis to me (humeral-callus bristles in the shape of a triangle + white hairs behind head)

Humerus seems to have only 3 bristles in a triangle, no more, which suggets Huebneria. This genus has the apical scutellars erect. I just can't see them. Theo |

Oeps, there are more then 3 bristles and the apical scutellar bristles are not erect. Seems Chris might have been right ... Theo |

Theo - your well-reasoned explanation is still more valuable than my (slightly) educated guess  I hadn't considered Huebneria but it is an incredibly rare species over here and I have only seen 3 in my life so it's still something that doesn't jump into my mind
