Looks like Lucilia (Calliphoridae) to me, but wait for expert opinion. |

My thanks for your answers and help. With this orientation, I'll edit the title. Be possible to establish the species, or missing data for it.? I admit, I have no knowledge to identify. But I see a very similar to this: http://www.dipter...to_id=2461Could be the same species.? Edited by Maherjos on 16-09-2011 23:21 |

How do you distinguish this photo from a metallic Muscidae? The native species of Calliphoridae in my area have at least 2 postsutural acrostichals while Muscidae commonly have 1 pair, but this appears to have only 1 pair. |

I appreciate your comments and input of data to add. I have said on several occasions that I have no knowledge or training in taxonomy. I can only compare images, with no more foundation than mere appearance. So I try to contrast my views with the knowledge and training you have the experts. And always respect the opinion of an expert. So I can only see its resemblance to the existing image before Dintera Gallery Info. http://www.dipter...to_id=2461 . But I recognize that I have no training or ability to answer your questions. Must be another expert in this kind of flies who can answer it. I am always attentive and willing to follow your conclusions of experts, always grateful for your help. Best Regards. |
