Hello, I photographed many of these flies on the sea shore and on a dead Rhizostoma pulmo in Giulianova (TE), Italy on August 3rd 2021. I think they are Ephydridae, but is it possible to identify their genus or species from these photos? Thank you in advance, Emanuele ESant attached the following image:  [300.15Kb] Edited by ESant on 15-10-2021 21:33 |

Thank you! According to the Checklist of the Italian Fauna, in Italy there is only H. albicans. Unfortunately the checklist hasn't been updated since 2003, so I don't know how accurate this data is. |

2017 update of Ephydridae Catalogue cites albicans as the only Italian species.
