Hello everyone,

this tachinid fly I supposed to be a Marquartia species, but Jürgen Peters said it could beEpicampocera succincta or Pales species. Can someone please help?

Location: Germany, Rhineland-Palatinum, 53572 Unkel, river Rhine valley, Stux hill, dry and warm habitat (grapeyards), near wood, August 7th. 2024.

Thanks in advance,

Michael

Sorry Michael, it's a male (no oe-bristles) - my fingers were faster than my brain...
