observation.org says: Phasia hemiptera (synonym: Alophora hemiptera) is a dipteran insect in the family Tachinidae. Unlike most species in the family, their larvae do not parasitize butterfly caterpillars, but rather bed bugs. The specific epithet Hemiptera corresponds to the name of the order Rhychophora, to which order this insect belongs. The German name for the fly also refers to this. This impressive male is easily identifiable due to his broad wings with iridescent blue-black spots.
