Tachinidae_Gymnosoma nudifrons is the correct name? Region Malá Fatra Terchová about 550 m altitude. Thank you very much for your help. I made a photo of 07. 09. 2025.

I think Gymnosoma nudifrons is correct - but it's a male.

Well, thorax lacks dust (except for humeri), so it is a female to me. Too much dust on scutellum for rotundatum and nudifrons and if you look very carefully, you can see the additional lateral tiny dust spots on hind margin of thorax, distinctive for clavatum.

So I'd say female clavatum (which might be a complex, but then again, it is a Gymnosoma, anything might be)
