It certainly looks like a tachinid - but not enough detail to know which one it could be  |

This looks a bit like Exorista grandis, a known parasite of the swallowtail. What do you think, Chris? Tony Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

Wouldn't like to commit myself really  It looks a bit like an Exorista but I'd have expected it to be a bit bigger ... but then it is hard to get a feel for scale. |
