Hello!

Photos from yesterday, Ostwestfalen/Germany, on a meadow. Length about 5-6 mm. Is it Phania funesta? Thanks!

[Addendum]
I think the wing venation does not point to the Tachinidae :-/.

Yes, it is Phania funesta.
There is a bend in vein M, take a good look.

Thanks a lot! Not clearly visible, therefore I doubted it later. But I'm happy that my first impression was not so wrong :-).
