The white hairs behind the eye are quite striking - Vienna, forest, mid September

My Diptera observations (and other living forms) can be found here, and corrections or comments over there would also be appreciated.

Thanks Eric,
maybe your '?' can be converted into a '!' by a Tachinid expert Cool

Hi Lorin, though we cannot see, if the tip of the abdomen is black, I may convert the '!' myself: the hairs of the gena are white (not black as in L. impudica - T&H key)

There is only one pair of bristles on tergite 3 - I wonder if that is an additional important character (unless both broke off...)

Yes, there a no discals and I cannot see if they were broken.
And while searching for these I've seen that the area around the post-alar callus is distincly red and with my limited knowledge I'm no more sure without lateral/caudal shots - we should better wait for THE expert!

These would be the other two pictures I took, nothing more to add from that side - so unfortunately abdomen not clearly visible

I don’t like identifying females Linnaemyia from pic, unless they both from lowland and very obvious…
