Hello,
This Tachinidae was photographed in August at 2460m altitude in the Pyrénées-Orientales (France).
The completely black antennae make me rule out the genus Tachina.
The absence of parafacial setae make me rule out the genus Peleteria.
I think it is a genus Nowickia.
The abdomen brown rather than yellow, the brown scutellum and the brown femur 3 make me rule out the most common Nowickia ferox.
Could it be Nowickia marklini? (Cf 2 to 6 marginal setae of tergite 2; 3rd antennal article 0.6,- 0.8 x the length of the 2nd; black tegula and brown-yellow basicosta)
