Difficult. There seem to be only 2 post IA on thorax, that should be a big clue (favouring Acemyiini, I guess).
Any chance of a pic showing lateral view, o matter how bad ?

No, sorry :-( the camera could'nt get into the wall, to take a shot more ventrally.

There are clearly 2 post sutural intra-alar setae. If I add two postsutural intra-alar setae separated by a distance equal at most to distance between the first seta and the suture, then it is also left Acemya and Stomina.

I add another dorsolateral view.

The first flagellomere of Acemya is pointed at the upper tip, not rounded as usual in Tachinidae.

Even if the view of the flagellomere is not good, Acemyia looks quite different.

Well, it could be a female Stomina, but I am not totally sure.

The frons seems to be bigger than an eye?
Abdomen seems to be black lateral - not yellowish or red (1st img.)?
Fore tarsomere 5 seems to be approx. as long as wide (2nd img)?
And if the claws of the fore tarsus are at most half as long as tarsomere 5 it could be the female Stomina calvescens
from Ceretti (2010): I tachinidi della fauna italiana

Thank you Eric :-)
I have found and studied the key and agree it must be calvescens
Best wishes
Rafael

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol
