 Hi everyone,

I have photographed this medium-sized fly yesterday near Paris.
Length about 6-7mm.
I think it belongs to the family Tachinidae but I'm not sure. Any opinion about the genus?
Thanks for your help!

 It could be Rhinophoridae.

 Thank you John, would a lateral view help make the decision?

 Possibly a female Stevenia deceptoria (greyish, tips of femora reddish)...

 Thank you very much Eric, so this would be a Rhinophoridae.

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
