Hello,
This little fly from Corsica seemed to be really interested in the ball of a dung beetle (which I think was
Scarabaeus laticollis...), I have other views if necessary.
Please, let me know what do you think about it.
Thanks.

Clearly, a Sarcophila. At that locality, could be latifrons or meridionalis. I would need a razorsharp lateral pic of the head, showing the hairs on the parafacial.

Thank you a lot Theo ! Here are the best shots I can give you but I don't think it'll be clear enough, as soon as I'm back home I'll check if my friend has better pictures and I'll send it.
