Red eyes and tesselated pattern of abdomen indicate Sarcophagidae to me.

Thanks to both of you !! :)

it is funny : in the field i thought about a very smallish Sarcophagidae and, when i saw the pictures on my screen and saw the setae on the abdomen, i then thought mechanically : NO a small Tachinid !!

the first impression was the good one !! ;)

thanks again !
