Again no ideas here. Notice the white spot on the wing. Goliathberg, Para, Suriname.
Thanks for helping.

I would bet on family Tachinidae, subfamily Phasiinae. It is not, but it reminds me a lot of our
Trichopoda pennipes. I wouldn't be surprised if this one is a relative...

It's in the same tribe, Trichopodini. In North America it would be a
Trichopoda. In South America there are more genera, or will be when the tribe is revised.
