Moscow reg., 07 July, on dead cat.
I suspect that it is another Neoleria - N.inscripta - no strip at thorax, less size, lighter and often with yellowish scutellum.
Correct?

Thank you Andrzej.
There is distinct ecological difference between N.ruficauda and N.inscripta, both attracted by carrion, but N.ruficauda prefers more "fresh" carrion - with maximum in period 1-2 week after cat death. N.inscripta appear 1-1,5 week later in period 2,5-3,5 weeks after death.

Both specimens belong to Neoleria inscripta.

I have to disprove my conclusions above.
Correct is another explanation:
Both N.ruficauda and N.inscripta appear on 3-4 day old carrion and remain near carrion at least a month.
But (in Moscow region):
N.ruficauda fly Apr-May
N.inscripta fly from end of May till mid-Aug at least
