Dear forum,
I took a picture of this couple today in my garden.
Is Sarcophagidae correct and can they be further identified?
Best regards, Niek

Yes, Niek, it are Sarcophaga (Sarcophaga). On the first photo you find 4 postsutural DC-setae (dorso-central), on the second I belief to see vaguely a marginal bristle on T3 (tergite 3, looks like being the second). Absolutely impossible to relate this picture to one of the 4 species that occur in The Netherlands. Jan H.C.Velterop.
