Hello,

a 9 mm Tachinid on Heracleum sphondylium on a meadow next to a small creek this morning (northwest Germany). ID possible?

BTW: There were many Tachinidae on the wing today: Ectophasia crassipennis, 3 Phasia species (barbifrons, obesa, hemiptera), Tachina (cf.) fera, Peleteria rubescens, Eriothrix rufomaculata, Mintho rufiventris, Epicampocera succincta, Linnaemya sp., Soliera sp., Siphona sp. and maybe others. I shot nearly 600 photos today (not only of Tachinids of course... B)). Some I'm planning to post here for ID or verification.
