This one was find in the "Reserva Ecológica Costanera Sur", Buenos Aires, Argentina, yesterday.
Could this species be identified with these two pictures? I have some others with other views if needed.
Thanks!
Eduardo

Sarcophagidae, perhaps Acridophaga?

Thanks Tony. Following your clue I found Acridiophaga uncata, that is common in Argentina. Do you think it can be this species? Thanks again!

I'm not familiar with the genus, so can't say, but normally in this family it's necessary to catch a male and compare the genitalia to named specimens or images.
