I was photographing sundew, when a small fly landed on the flower. I managed to get only a single shot, not close-up. Nevertheless, I get the impression it might be Tachinidae, may be Phasia? Could anyone (dis-)agree? Eucalyptus forest near Melbourne.

Tachinidae. 100% sure. Phasia sp. |

This must be Phasia, which does occur in Australia (see review by Crosskey on Australian Tachinidae, as Alophora). Theo |
