Difficult ... but maybe Spallanzania?

Thank you for ID Chris and Theo.
I looked in the gallery, also antennas and abdomen fit well which are visible on additional pictures unfortunately only suitable for waste bin.

As I remember, Spallanzania are best collected (like most tachinids) otherwise identifications can only be very tentative ;)
