 Hello,

I have no leads to identify this small fly (~5mm). Is it a small Tachinidae? Any idea of the genus?

Apr 17, 2022, Near Banyuls-sur-mer, Southern France.

 It's a Sarcophagidae and not a Tachinidae.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
