It sat in an awkward way making it impossible to take good photos. This is the result. Maybe it is a freshly emerged specimen and therefor impossible to ID.

The bend in M is quite rounded. Are we sure this is a tachinid and not a muscid? eg newly emerged Dasyphora?

Definitely a Tachinid, Peribaea spec. or just maybe Actia (infantula).

Thank you both. A pity I didn't get a better photo of this interesting fly.
