Interesting. Looks like Ligeria, but the topcell seems to be open.....

Yes, that is open. I have some ideas, but I do not dare to publish it.
Did you collect the specimen ?

No, I don't collect. You are being very mysterious, Theo. Have I discovered something new to science?

PS Don't take that seriously - I can't get the Smileys to work.

OK, so I run it through tachiinidae.eu and it confirmed by idea: Elodia.
In which case is looks like Elodia morio, which is reported only once for the Netherlands.
This is definitely NOT an identification it is simply not possible so see all the features. From what I seem to be able to see, I would know no other genus that fits. But maybe the picture is playing with us, likel maybe the abdomen in not black but does have pruinescence .....

I've got a few more photos although they're not my best. Is there anything else apart from the abdomen that you would need to see?
