yep. Tachinidae.  It resembles a little, Leskia.. but the black vittae on scutum, and much more bristles, and the more pale orange (in relation to the Leskia) take off this idea ... I'm just trying.  My test, as Nikita says.

Thank you, Jorge What characteristics do you see to recognize it as a Tachinidae? |

Sorry for bumping this thread, but I don't know if more people didn't reply because they don't know the ID of the fly or if they didn't notice the thread. |

Well, in this photo it is a bit difficult to see why it is a tachinid but in general it has very strong bristles on the body and a bend in vein-m ... and it isn't one of the other families with strong bristles and a bend in vein-m (eg. Sarcophagidae or Rhinophoridae) |
