Hello,

I have this Oestroidea male from the area of Athens. Based on the subscutellum, I believe that it isn't Tachinidae and, based on the presence of a lappet on the posterior spiracle, I exclude Rhinophoridae. However, I am not sure about Sarcophagidae and Calliphoridae. What do you believe?

Thanks!
