Nope. This one is 'much' plumpier, to a Tachinist eye. This is the female of Phryxe nemea, one of the most reared Tachinidae and most difficult to ID for the beginner, unfortunately (I would need 3 full sentences to explain the ID). ONce you know what it is, you might try to use the key yourself. Theo Zeegers |

Keep up the good work, both the rearing and the pictures ! some Tachinidae are never seen in nature, but not too difficult to rear. Theo |
