Zophomya temula (Tachinidae) perhaps? Smile

PS: tachinids are very far from 'normal' - they're internal parasitoids of other invertebrates - usually lepidoptera. Smile

Hi Chris,

I meant common in the sense of not rare. And I agree: it's pretty and interesting. Found a huge image of Zophomya temulae and I believe you're spot on! Thanks,

Andr
