I think it is Tachinidae but looks a bit odd, so I am not sure  Taken in mixed woodland by a river in the outskirts of Madrid on the 2nd May 2012. Thanks for any help!

Definitely a tachinid - maybe Macquartia sp. but I'd need a specimen to be sure

Sorry for the late reply, Chris! And thanks so much for your answer! Unfortunately, only pictures   Let's hope somebody can at least confirm it is Macquartia. I would be more than happy with that |

I can see this suggestion, but the head is much too naked. I think it is something else Theo |
