Hello,

I think this is Chrysomya albiceps in copula, but with those damned green flies, one never knows.

I don't think so, Pierre.
It is damned Lucilia. Damned Chrysomia albiceps has dark hind margins of tergites, white anter. spiracle, less developed setae on mesotonum.

Not only is it Lucilia, but chances are it's L sericata - one of the species with 3 post sutural ac, anyway Grin
