Tachinidae. Sarcophagidae have bare eyes. |

Thanks John, I correct. Any idea what genus? I don't have this species in my records yet. |

Hello! I would say that this is a Macquartia species (maybe dispar?) but I’m not sure in this. |

Thank you very much varganimrod, This is a genus I don't know yet in my garden. For the males I understand that the dust patterns on the abdomen help to get to the species and from the photos I can see, Macquartia dispar does seem to match. |
