Hello,

I found this fly in a private garden L'Aquila (AQ), Italy, on October 7th 2023. I think it is a Tachinidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species from these photos? I kept the specimen, so if other details are necessary I can provide them.

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

Clearly, a female Winthemia. Need to work on the species.

Thank you! Could it be W. bohemani?

Yes, it looks like bohemani, but here only 2 sternopleural (meral) bristles, should be 3.
Moreover, tibiae are black.
It is the female of W. rufiventris.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol
