 Hello!

These longlegged Tachinidae are rather common in our garden (northwest Germany) at the moment. I am not sure, whether the one on the last picture belongs to the same species. Its eyes meet in the middle (male?). All about 7 mm.

 Hello, Jaakko and Chris!

Thank you! I was wondering about Macquartia, but it seemed too slender for me after looking at photos in the gallery.
Best regards,
Jürgen

 Macquartia grisea is more slender than others, very Muscidae-like.

Thank you. So you think, this is really M. grisea? There were several of them in the garden also this afternoon.
Best regards,
Jürgen

 Well, that's my guess - they are usually very grey and slender, like your fly Smile

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
