this posiible Sarcophagidae found 22. June 2019 on our terrace in South Palatina / Germany is with about 7mm much too small for Sarcophaga carnaria. Are there other smaller one's? Or is it a Tachinidae like Blondelia nigripes? Would be nice if it is possible to ID it on this one Foto: ZiUser attached the following image: [166.25Kb] Edited by ZiUser on 30-06-2019 12:37 Thanks for your Help, Rainer |

It is Sarcophagidae. It is rarely possible to identify to species from a photo. Underfed larvae of Sarcophagidae often produce small adults. This is an adaptation to the larval environment where many larvae compete for a limited resource. |
