Hello Forum, one more fly from the alder marshland in Hagen (D) 175 m above sea level. This photo I took on June 23rd 2007. The plant in the background is Phalaris arundinacea Is it a Calliphoridae? Is a closer determination possible? Best wishes Josef Josef Buecker attached the following image:  [15.5Kb] |

Looks like a Lucilia male, but can't take it further with this photo.

I change my opinion to Lucilia sp. now. |
