Is it Tachina magnicornis or still T. fera?

Difficult, it seems indeed the female of magnicornis.
Some females are intermediate in features.

Thank Yiou Theo. This one seems to have only 1 (broken) outer orbital bristle. On the same finding place I saw 2 other of these Tachinids, 1 with at least 2 and 1 with at least 3 outer orbital bristles.
This is the one with 2 bristles.
