Another tachinid. I am not sure if I have seen it before.

The eyes seems very large.
It somehow reminds me of Thelyconychia solivaga.
Need to check that.

I also consiered this. I think the next two species are. T. solivaga from December 2oo8 (the latest Tachinid I have ever seen.). The abdomenal pattern is slightly different.

I have checked my collection:
I am pretty sure Thelyconychia is correct.
It is a late summer species.
December is exceptionally late.
