Hi all,
this tachinide shoud be Thelaira solivaga, not Thelaira nigripes - because of the 4 long bristles on the anterodorsal surface of its tibia. Is my diagnosis correct?

Thanks for your help in advance

Not Thelaira. Note head shape and sharp bend in vein M. Maybe Panzeria.

Yes, Panzeria puparum it is.
