 Yes, Tachina is correct. The broadened stripe on the abdomen leads to magnicornis, but the front tarsi seem to be yellow = fera? Do you you have more images?

 So let's hope for the experts (think, I see 2 proclinate orbitals which could point to magnicornis, too)

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.

I would prefer not to receive any more messages from diptera.info signed by Paul... (Thread reply notification)... Could they be signed by ‘The diptera.info team’?
