Hello,

I photographed this large fly in Bazzano (AQ), Italy, on October 16th 2022. I think it is a Tachinidae, but is it possible to say more about its genus or species just from this photo? Unfortunately it flew away before I could take more pictures.

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

I'm no expert (far from it), but using the characters I can take from the picture (large, say 20mm, black body colour, hairy eyes, r4-5 open, grey scutellum, blackish femora and tibiae etc. it may well be a Nemoraea species. A picture of Nemoraea pellucida on the internet seems close. But don't rely on me!

Best, Ton

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

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
