I know Sarcophagidae are impossible by pictures but this one was so cooperative that I would like to give it a try and get the genus (or subgenus if it is Sarcophaga). I have nice detail of the head, chaetotaxy and thorax if required.

Taken in the outskirts of Madrid in a path surrounded by dry vegetation on the 17th march 2012.

Thanks in advance for any help Smile

Certainly a male of Sarcophaga sp., and to give a *very* bold guess at the subgenus I would say Helicophagella.

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
