Hi binturong, I think it's a female Tachina magnicornis/nupta.
The 4th segment of the foretarsus is not wider than long (2nd image): nupta (T&H key).

Greetings, Eric

It is a female, therefore I would not dare to make very definitive IDs. The matter is way too complicated to base an ID on just one feature. For what it is worth, antennal shape suggests magnicornis rather than nupta to me.

Hi Theo, thanks for curbing me - I totally agree! I do not know the difference in the antennal shape and I was happy to see the 4th tarsus so clearly. So we should remain with T. magnicornis/nupta.

Greetings, Eric
