Another species that I saw only once. Might be as well an odd Sarcophagid.

Looks interesting - a tachinid - possibly Goniini :)

Well, first impressions are often correct,
a Sarcophagidae it is, not even odd, but simply Miltogramma, could very well be M. germari

Very close, Theo,
a Sarcophagidae it is, but not a simpe Miltogramma.
In Miltogramma gena are narrow and pulvilli are smal.
This is male of Senotainia tricuspis, parasite of bees.

Thanks,
I'm doing the Miltogramminae the sloppy way, so then you make these mistakes.
The large vibrissa is broken off, I suppose (I don't see one). Now you mention it, I think I can see the pore.
