Tribe Tachinini.

Are the eyes haired? Jurinella has hairy eyes.

Curran reviewed this group:

Curran, C.H. 1947. New and little known American Tachinidae. Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History 89: 45–122. https://digitalli...efee2d4af2

He noted that some species of Amicrotrichoma and Oharamyia (as Lindigia) could easily be confused with Jurinella.

Thanks. Eyes looks like hairless in the photos. I will check these other genera.

Edit; Google don't give me any result for Amicrotrichoma. It's correctly spelled?
The very little results by Oharamyia could match.

I spelled the genus name wrong. Amicrotrichomma. The name comes in part from Greek ὄμμα.

There are several tropical genera with names derived from Jurinia and several more with type species originally described in Jurinia.

Thanks. I don't find any image of Amicrotrichomma and the few results by Jurinia looks like different. Jurinella and Oharamyia looks like better candidates.
