Eliozeta or
Clytiomyia - my best guess would be the former :) Do you have any more angles? Failing that get a net on any tachinid that moves ;)

My net broke! Disaster!!! So very few specimens taken. I had to resort to collecting stuff out of the swimming pool filters! Got a few Tachinids, but not many :(:(

Argghhhh!!!! It's a tragedy ... can you maybe get one from the nearest British Embassy ... tell them it's an emergency and they need to fly something in on the overnight! ;)

It was officially a "family holiday" with flies taking a back seat. None - the - less I sneaked a net and a few tubes along, but did not take a spare net or two, as I usually would. At least I have not got loads of specimens to pin!! Scant consolation though.
