Hi everyone,
I have photographed this medium-sized fly yesterday near Paris.
Length about 6-7mm.
I think it belongs to the family Tachinidae but I'm not sure. Any opinion about the genus?
Thanks for your help!

It could be Rhinophoridae.

Thank you John, would a lateral view help make the decision?

Possibly a female
Stevenia deceptoria (greyish, tips of femora reddish)...

Thank you very much Eric, so this would be a Rhinophoridae.
