Another Tachinidae fly that I believed to be a Adejeania sp., but due to the short proboscis I am in doubt, and I thank any help to identify it.

Not an
Adejeania - note that this fly has small palps while
Adejeania have massive palps. In fact this one has different shaped antennae too, which I suspect suggests that it isn't even in the Tachinini. :)
My guess is that this is likely to be related to your original guess of
Hystricia sp. (tribe Polideini) but we would only know that if we could see the hind spiracle and check whether the lower calypter has hairs.

I don't belive that you will see what you need, watching a couple's photo that I have in my Flickr, but here it is:
