Hello,

Thanks and Regards,
Eugene

Hi Eugen, I've never seen one here in Franconia, but it could probably be a Chrysomya albiceps.
Southern species and very rare in Germany until now (2008 2nd find):

Greetings, Eric
p.s. Nice photos showing "the whitish-yellowish pollinosity on the face, white anterior spiracles, dark posterior edges of the abdominal tergites" (cited from the above-mentioned PDF)!

I miss the banding on the abdomen and the head seems too short. I would say a Lucilia...

Also, because the long and short hairs on the thorax are too differentiated.

Thank you both for your corrections! I was confused by the stout but short appearance of that fly, which I've never seen with a Lucilia before.

Kind regards, Eric
