Hi


Caught this one near the place (5 km Pfft) where I found piophilids on sheeps...

Who am I? I know what is it, but I put this here so you can try ID it. Wink
I hope the two experts in the family don't tell which is can it be. Smile

Not an anthomyiid. Probably a tachinid with hairy eyes and setulae on the parafacials?
