Hello! I saw this fly near Tours (France) in woodland. For me, it looked like a Tachina fera with a strange bulb between the eyes! So, could you tell me what is it ? Date: March 2005. http://perso.wanadoo.fr/a-o/tach1 http://perso.wanadoo.fr/a-o/tach2 Thanks, Matthieu |

Hi Matthieu, This is a member of the Tachinid genus Gonia, no doubt. You can actually see the characteristic reclinate orbital setae (reclinate being characteristic). My best guess would be G. vacua. Theo Zeegers |
