Seems reasonable to me. Only query I would have is how many anterodorsal bristles on the mid-tibia? I can't work it out from even your excellent pics.

Jorge - do you want to do a coloring in job on the meron to highlight the meral setae? An important character for separating Calliphoridae from Muscidae especially, and not usually visible in a photo.
