The fly was caught by hand indoors, November 11th 2023 (Spain: Girona: Beuda: 400 masl)
Looks like Musca but is not Musca domestica. Perhaps M.autumnalis, but abdomen is mostly grey with orange only anteriorly.

It has a broad frontal vitta and haired proepisternum, consistent with Musca domestica.

That's the hairs on proepisternum (in front of spiracle) that seemed to be absent to me...

I see a few hairs, not as many as in the drawing.

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
