This fly looks to me like a tachinid, perhaps
Thelaira, but is it really one? Is it possible to id it? I found it in my garden in Bilthoven (Netherlands), sitting on
Aegopodium podagraria, remaining in the shade all the time.

About the same size as
Eristalis horticola, I think, but more slenderly built.
I also measured the leaf on the photo, which gave me approximately 12 mm.

This is probably the same fly. Does it make an id easier?
