Hello Diptera forum,
This is my first post on this forum. This week I made this picture of a Tachinidae, but I have no idea which genus. Does anyone know the name of this fly? Picture is made in the south-east of the Netherlands. Thanks for your help.

First post, but not the worst.
It's a male Blepharipa pratensis, rather rare species.

Eyes seem to be hairy? In Blepharipa they aren't, so I think it should be something different.

This may be
Drino lota. When I zoom in, it seems the ocellar bristles are missing,

Drino do have hairy eyes, but I agree not normally as conspicuous as these.

Nemorea pellucida? Can also be a fat
Winthemia female..Knowing the flight time might help!

In my opinion, it is none of the above.... so it puzzles me.
Given the locality, I am now considering Carcelia iliaca, though I cannot see any red on the tibiae.....
Another idea is Nilea hortulana ?
