hi flyforum,

I found this rather typical tachinidae.

greyish/blue-ish thorax.
The antennestructure(edit: arista-structure) is obviously build.
basical-veins of the wing are redish-braun
basical parts of antenne III is redish.
size: 8-10mm
place: Amsterdam forest
date: 18-05-2010

What kind of Tachinidae?

Argh ... I always get beaten by them ... I ruled them out because I didn't think they were 8-10mm in size Sad

Thank you Theo and Chris,

I was not correct telling about 'The antennestructure', that part is called arista and I should have known..

You don't think it was 8-10mm.., that must be smaller I guess..??

(Mostly I take the size to big, maybe I am a bit mislead by the macro-effect of the picture)

Well, I should have trusted my eyes - the bristles on the parafacials and the hairs on the wing veins made me think of Triarthria but I didn't check the arista, otherwise I'd have been more confident to make that ID Smile
