Hello, Can anyone please help me identify the Diptera in the attached image? I desperately need to identify it for my thesis but am having no luck. It was observed on a carcass. Many thanks, Daniella daniellaliza attached the following image: [112.3Kb] |

OK. Unless you have a better picture, I can only guessing (the picture is too blurred to see whether it has presutural acrostichals, and legs are not visible) : my guess is Phaonia subventa (female), but as I said, nothing sure here.

Hi Stephane, Thank you very much, thats much appreciated! Unfortunately I was photographing it through a mesh cage so the only other picture I have is the zoomed out version. While this may be less blurry, there is a carcass in it which I didn't want to subject people to! Again, thanks for the help, much appreciated! |
