Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Kind of Oestridae?

Hi there,

I could take a picture of this fly 2000 metres above sea level doing kind of hilltopping.
Is it an Oestridae and if it is one, what kind of Oestridae is it?

Seen in Austria, Kärnten, Gartnerkofel (10.07.15) about 2000 masl

Thanks a lot,
Christoph

Yes, indeed, sir !

Cephenemyia stimulator.
This genus is extreme hilltopping.
