Can anyone point me in the right direction? I can make up my mind about where this specimens fits in.

Only an idea: Tachinidae, Elodia morio? Other views could help.

Yes, Frauenfeldia rubricosa seems to fit! Thanks! :-)

However, I see Frauenfeldia mentioned as junior synonym of Tricogena.

What is the correct name?

Yes, you are right, according to the code.
According to me, Tricogena is a brainkilling ,isspelling by Rondani, which should be corrected (Trichogena), which leads to trioubles with preoccupation.
So my brain sticks to Frauenfeldia.
