Senegal, Sin Saloum, 6-7mm.
Africa is very rich for Calliphoridae.
This one is also interesting by its habit of male's mass swarming on sunset!

Impressive pictures.

Can't tell you the species, though.
First impression is that of Chrysomyini.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
