Not a tachinid - it's a sarcophagid :) Change the title to attract Thomas Pape ;)

Ooops, got it wrong once again, I thought Tachinid because of the strong bristles on its rear end...:D
Thanks Chris, will change the title..
Myriam :)

The clue with this photo is the strong stripes on the thorax, the long chequered abdomen and red eyes :)
