The fly in the gallery has the wrong species name. There is no Pandelleia sexmaculata. The checklist of world Tachinidae has two species in Europe which were formerly considered synonyms.

Pandelleia otiorrhynchi Villeneuve, 1922. Europe (W. Europe (France, Germany, Switzerland)).
Pandelleia sexpunctata (Pandellé, 1896). Central Asia (Uzbekistan), Europe (S. Europe (Andorra, Spain), W. Europe (France)), Middle East (Israel), Russia (Eastern Siberia), Transcaucasia.

Edit: I corrected the name in the gallery to sexpunctata.
