Hello,
Still in Savoy (France), 2007/7/15, 1750 m above sea, size about 12 mm.
Tachina seems me OK. But not
T. fera, since the black stripe is interrupted.
Which one, in this case?
Thanks in advance.

alas, Tachina it's not, but the related Nowickia.
Some special species, it seems.

Theo,
Thanks for
Nowickia.
Any idea about this "special species" :)?

might be something like strobeli or rondanii
(guess after that we'd run out famous dipterists)
the abdominal pattern does not resemble ferox or atripalpis (most common species)
