 Could it be a female of Lucilia caesar ?

 Either that or illustris. Can't really tell for certain from photos unfortunately. What sort of habitat was it? Illustris is almost ubiquitous in Europe and much more synanthropic. Caesar is a woodland species.

 I found it in my garden, but there are wooded areas around.
Perhaps this photo of T6 could help you ?

 Can't really see the marginals well enough to be sure, and I find even with really good photos it is really hard to make a determination for these two species. I'm leaning towards illustris though.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
