I just know it is not a Tachinidae, but a Muscidae. Genus and species I leave for the calypterate lovers...:)

Thank you Nikita:). I hope that I produced enough angles on this shot. Not often achievable with live specimens in the wild.

It is Helina evecta (strongly infuscated crossveins, hairy eyes...)
