 Hello,

I photographed this fly on Monte Bazzano (AQ), Italy, 700m a.s.l. on March 16th 2024. I think it is a Tachinidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species from these photos?
I'm sorry for the quality of the pictures, it was a very windy day.

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

 Ah, the date is actually a big help.
It is P. meridionalis

 Given the quality of the pictures I wasn't hoping for a species identification, so this is great! Thank you very much!

 To be clear: the ID is positve on pics only and the date confirms it

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
