Apparently this used to be Wohlfahrtia opaca (Coquillett), but that name may be a synonym of vigil (Walker). I do not have the catalog of Sarcophagidae names.

In my universe, this would be Wohlfartia indeed.

No idea about the species in your universe.

Thomas Pape says he considers Wohlfahrtia opaca to be a color variant of vigil, but there is disagreement on this point.

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
