Hello, I photographed this fly near San Bernolfo (CN), Italy, 1700m a.s.l. on August 22nd 2024. I think it is a Tachinidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species based on these photos? Unfortunately it flew away before I could take some lateral shots. Thank you in advance, Emanuele ESant attached the following image:  [298.27Kb] Edited by ESant on 06-12-2024 13:39 |

Parafacial seems bare, Smidtia conspersa has DC 3+3 and amoenaa adpressednhairs on teegites. Moreover, the apical scutellar is semi-erect. So my gut feeling is Hubneria. Pity the humeral bristles are not clear on pictures. Theo |

Thank you both for your help. I knew it wasn't easy, given the pictures. |
