 I am not convinced it is a tachinid - looks more like a muscid or callaphorid from the general shape - but I am not an expert on the fauna down there Smile

 The abdominal pattern reminded me of Myospila or Helina (Muscidae) when I first saw this, but I don't think it is either of those. Really not sure ...
The brown things on the abdomen in the first picture appear to be dried anthers - you can see some sticking to the flowers on the left.
