Hello,

what species of Tachinidae is this? Found at Berlin, Germany in
a sandy and dry habitat. The size was approximately 1-1,5 cm.

Edit: Maybe Tachina magnicornis ?

Looks like Nowickia ferox to me - do you have more angles and more macro? :)

It's certainly Nowickia ... most probably ferox :)

Thank You. That's enough for me. I archive the fly as Nowickia cf. ferox :)
