Hello, I photographed this fly in Bazzano (AQ), Italy, on December 10th 2020. I think it is a Tachinidae, but is it possible to identify the genus or species from these photos? Thank you in advance, Emanuele ESant attached the following image:  [288.43Kb] Edited by ESant on 19-02-2021 10:04 |

Looks like a female Meigenia. Vertex is relatively broad. It might be M. incana, if you have this species. Theo |

Thank you very much Theo! According to Fauna-eu M. incana is not present in Italy. |

Well, better to identify Meigenia based on male genitalia. Theo |
