Can anyone identify this large & impressive tachinid? Several at Cors Fochno (Borth Bog), Ceredigion, Wales. 7.9.09.
Habitat is a large acid peat bog.
Thanks.

Same again - as above, I think :) If you think that it is the same species as a previous photo then you can always reply to your original post and add second, third and fourth photos that way :)

Hi,
Might be my imagination, but the eyes look hairy? If so, then
E. grandis could be an option. Habitat would fit but the flight time too late...
Exorista anyways, but I wouldn't give 100% determination based on these photos, sorry.

Yeah, must be your vivid imagination.
Looks like E. larvarum to me
