Tachinidae Blondeliini
Male, most likely Uromedina caudata
But there some other genera with species with a tail.
I would need a specimen for 100% identifications.

Very nice :) I was given some neotropical tachinids with tails and had guessed that they were just
Uramya but they turned out to be
Trichodura, so the situation is always more complicated that it first seems :D

Looks like someone tried pulling most of the extremities but did not succeed in breaking the specimen but rather just streched the extremities. :D

This is a real
Uramya (in the BMNH collection) :D
I really love the neotropics! :D
