Hello,

I need a confirm for this Muscidae, I'm almost sure it's Musca domestica and not Musca autumnalis, because of the broad black band in frons:

"frontalia at middle quite three times as wide as a frontal orbit." Fonseca key.

Thanks for the help!

Regards,
Marcello

Well, Marcello, I am not an expert but in this case I am pretty possitive this is a female Musca domestica ;)

Thank you for the confirm, look like it to me too, I was not sure 100% because I saw it just one time :)
