Another Tachinid from Austria. Not sure if this is again Voria ruralis, or some related species. Unfortunately, I have just this single low quality photo.

The approximate location: https://www.inatu.../102425781

Interestingly, I photographed this species immediately after this other one https://www.inatu.../102424818, which i think is Voria ruralis. Now I really see how different they are, for example the pulvilli is very large in this one, but small in Lydella.

Weel, info on habitat is consistent with three species of Lydella, so alas not of help.
Thanks
