Hello,

I photographed this fly in Bazzano (AQ), Italy, on November 29th 2019. I think it is a Tachinidae, but is it possible to identify the genus or species from these photos?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

Is that the species known as Thelymorpha marmorata in the world checklist published by the CNC?

My mistake, I used the old name. Thelymorpha it is.
