Hello Xespok,
Please check an ID by Theo Zeegers (Microphthalma europaea) in http://www.dipter...ad_id=2730

P.S. Athough I'm not so sure now, the antennae look a bit different, so...

Very different Grin hairy eyes, bigger eyes, bare arista, large antenna-3 ... so not Microphthalma. Something like Timavia amoena - but not enough visible to run it through the key so we're relying on "Theo's Tachinid Recognition System" Smile

Which is neither magic nor fool-proof.

Pity we can't see the wing venation.
But I'm quite confident that is must be in the Exoristini-tribe, given the way the frontal bristles descend.
In which case the hairy eyes, presence of scutellar bristles and 4 post DC would lead us to Parasetigena silvestris. A spring species indeed.

I have some more photos of the same individual on my web site. But I am not sure whether they help.

Anyways Chris, Theo thx for the help!

I still can't see the fold, but the bend in M is very abrupt.
I have no real doubt there is a fold, implying:
Parasetigena
