Hello,

I photographed this fly in Bazzano (AQ), Italy, on October 27th 2022. I think it is a Calliphoridae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species from these photos?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

It cries out Calliphoridae, arista plumose, parafacial hairy, bent in vein m evenly curved, projecting mouth margin …


I would be surprised.

Thanks Theo, I believe you. You're the expert. But a plumose arista occurs even in Tachina, if I remember well. Best, Ton
