Hello,
can anyone determine this fly taken 6th March 2007, between the Black Forest (north) and the
Upper Rhine / Murg Valley / Southwestern Germany, 165 meters.
I have gone through the gallery and the best match I can see is Muscidae, Eudasyphora cyanicolor.
Regards Ulrich

Well, I think the wing venation probably isn't sharp enough for Calliphoridae, so I agree it is Muscidae. Also doesn't seem to have enough post-sutural acrostichal bristles for any of the Lucilia. I suspect you are right, but the photo is not good enough to be sure.
