Species of Istochaeta are extremely similar. I am not going to speculate on the species with the material presently available.

so now do you understand why I say genitalia is required for everything?
which reminds me, I have collected a few more Tachinids, so I will post genitalia when I have time to do so.

Regarding the Istochaeta: next time I will collect it. It is small, maybe 5mm, so it should be hemichaeta.
I doubt that I will have found an undescribed species. I highly doubt it.

I will try my best to collect it next May.

Thank You very much for your Time and Effort.
Theo, you are are a nonpareil individual.
