Hello,
this Lucilia (?) was found Sept. 3, '20 in a moist area beside a pond in a flat and open area east of Hannover, Germany. Is an ID possible?
Thanks a lot for answers!

No, clearly a different species.
So please split the thread into two, otherwise it gets most confusing.

Thank you

Hello Hans, it's difficult to be sure as we cannot see the first tergites or the palps, but I'll try (with big ?):
I think the basicosta is dark and the fly has 3 post acrs - so it could be a male L. silvarum. The distance between the eyes supports that: then frons of L. caesar is distinctly smaller and that of L. bufonivora visibly larger.
Greetings, Eric Kloeckner

Hello Eric,
thank you very much! You've made the best of it! Great! So I add a cf. to the name.

Your thankful Hans
