Found on a forest edge on Chaerophyllum temulum, 2nd June 2020. Unfortunately, there is only this single photo.

Diificult to say. It looks like divisa, but that is a very early spring species. Alternative is vacua, but I cannot assess the abdominal tip properly.
Vacua would be very nice in Niedersaksen

Hi Theo,
many thanks!
You already confirmed a G. vacua I photographed in May, that was in the same region (about 14 km northeast of the place where this individual was seen, in the northeastern part of Niedersachsen):

I'll try to keep a close eye on tachinids next year.. Smile

Yes, I remembered that case, though I did not remember its author Smile
The more I look at the pic, the more it seems to be vacua.
