Hi again,

is this an Anthomyiid? To know the right family would be quite satisfying for me... I guess the genus won't be identifiable (via this picture) anyway, right?

Thank you!
Greetings,
Lennart

Hello Lennart,

No, Anthomyiidae don't have that bent in the M-vein. This is Rhinophoridae or perhaps Tachinidae - wait for the experts.

If you start with Anthomyiidae, given this choice, it is bound to be Rhinophoridae: Rhinophora lepida female.
