That is a well-known member of the family Pseudotachinidae, one of the most common: Frauenfeldia rubricosa !

O sorry, you are right, it changed genera. Still cannot get used to that.
Pseudotachinidae, of course, is pulling your leg.

I am very glad the only Rhinophoridae in my region is the distinctive
Melanophora roralis. Family identification of Oestroidea is so much easier than in Europe.
It was probably introduced along with
Oniscus asellus.
