I photographed these two on a bush just outside my flat in Liverpool, Merseyside, UK on 1st June 2007. Can anyone tell which species of Scathophagids they are? thanks

I don't think you could go further than to suggest Sarcophaga sp.. Nearly all Sarcophagini are identified on the male genitalia - and this one seems to be 'occupied' ;)
