Not Anthomyiidae, but Muscidae.

hello Kurt,
I made a lot of mistakes around this, but meanwhile I have read that an Anthomyiidae never has more then 3 dorsal central hairs on the scutum, whereas...as in this case...the muscid has more then 3 dorsal central hairs... (i've found this info here: http://www.tuin-thijs.com/vliegen-muscidae-engels.htm)
