Hello, I photographed this fly in Bazzano (AQ), Italy, on August 28th 2022. I think it is a Tachinidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species from these photos? Thank you in advance, Emanuele Edited by ESant on 11-11-2022 22:04 |

Are you sure, Roger ? Looks like a Bithia to me. Proboscis is quite long, but not geniculate, setulae on wing veins are lacking, etc. Theo |

I'm NEVER sure Theo.  But on this occasion I'm very sure that you are correct as usual.  Now I'll get back to editing some photos of Orcas I took today. Those I am sure of  Regards Roger |
