Hi Nikita and Theo,
Can the black backstripe tell whether it is fera or magnicornis?
Tachina fera - black stroke walks from broad to thin -(seen from head to back)

Thank you Theo, I hoped that life views are somehow enought for you. I used for ID shape of black stripe on abdomen...

Oke, that suggests fera. This feature is, however, variable, as are all others.
Also use: colour of tarsi, colour of hairs on gena and parafacialia, shape and colour of third antennal segment.
Most of these suggest fera, in your case
