Hello, this is my first thread here! I saw this Tachinid fly August 18th, 2023 that I managed to ID down to Microphtalma species. I believe it is most likely M. disjuncta. Is it possible to tell from these photos? Location: Lynchburg Virginia Thank you! Mabuva2021 attached the following image:  [31.18Kb] Edited by Mabuva2021 on 04-09-2023 17:58 |

It looks like Microphthalma disjuncta, which is now thought to be a species group. |
