Thanks, Bev. I did note the &quot;Elalpus signifer&quot; photo in Stephen
Marshall's insect book (page 485) but wasn't really sure since the
abdomen pattern was somewhat different.<br>
Cheers, <br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">I believe this is a Tachinid Fly
due to its hairiness. Although this group is very difficult to identify
to species (or perhaps genus) level. the marking on the abdomen, unusual
for this group(?), may mean someone will recognize it.<br><br>
