A couple of weeks ago I posted some pictures of a drinker moth caterpillar, together with the larvae and pupae of the parasitic insect that killed it. The killer has emerged from the pupae and it looks like a tachinid fly of some kind.
You can see the prominent calypters at the base of the wings, which are a tachinid characteristic.
This individual has just emerged from its pupa and its wings have yet to expand.
