Hello,
excuse me for my bad English.
The following Tachinidae is a result from breeding of Araschnia levana. The caterpillars of Araschnia levana I found in last autumn in Freiberg/Saxony in Germany. On 17th March 2011 this Diptera come from a puppa of Araschnia levana.
What is the species of this Diptera? Can anybody help me?

Dear Maik
This forum requests you to post the photos here and not to use links, thanks
it is Sturmia bella, a typical parasitoid of Nymphalidae (so that figures !)
