Hello,

I photographed this fly in the Vomano river spring (AQ), Italy, 1100m a.s.l. on July 18th 2024. I think it is a Tachinidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species based on these photos?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

Peleteria iavana if I interpret Ceretti's key properly. One of the characters is tiny palps, visible in the last photo.
