Ansbach, garden near Frankenhoehe Nature Park, old deciduous forest, 2023-09-27
Hedera helix
My first attempt was female
T. fera, then male
T. magnicornis - but both don't match.
Is this the mysterious male
Tachina nupta?
Looking very forward to your advanced ideas!
Tachina fera female!

It is a female. I would call nupta only in males.
Moreover, it lokks like a typical fera to me.

Yes, indeed, I thought it was a male - base on this blurry image...
And the yellow antennae that I recognised for the first time.
Thank you once again, Theo, for bringing me back to earth!
