I captured this tachinid in Barcelos, Portugal on the last 20th of September. To me it looks like a female Nemoraea pellucida but I think it is a bit small for this species. What do you think?

size: around 11 mm

Most definitely female Nemoraea.

It can be quite small, like 11 mm. Not common but not really unusual either. Third antennal segment is different from all other Eurithia / Tachina / ...

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
