Tachinid Fly

Hystricia sp.

Description:

Hystricia is a genus of flies in the family Tachinidae.

Habitat:

I found this fly near the jungle of Atlantic Forest, in Parque São Vicente, Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro.

Notes:

The town of the coordinates (lat: -22.538515, long: -43.228195) that I used for search, is not DUQUE DE CAXIAS, as reports the search map tool of this page, but PETRÓPOLIS, as shown here:
