Another species from Chiapas. This one from Frontera Corozal, border town with Guatemala.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

With the rounded vein M, shiny black body with white shoulders, and short depression in T1+2 it reminds me of Blondeliini, but the combination is not definitive. There are lookalikes (at this resolution) in other tribes of Tachinidae.

Not the same flies (the first is holoptic, not the second). I guess the second is a Sarcophagidae.
