Hi John,

I found one publication where the authors mention a host: Anarta melanopa Thunberg (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae).

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/314230206_First_rearings_of_Chaetovoria_antennata_Villeneuve_Diptera_Tachinidae_including_description_of_the_puparium

A friend of mine collected the fly at about 500-600 meters in his garden...

Cheers, Helge
