I'm a PhD student at University of Jordan.
I'm conducting a research entitled: "Studies on common insects attacking animal cadavers in Jordan" I need a Key for Oestroidea (epically spices belong to Calliphoridae and Sarcohpagidae) for Palaearctic area.
Thank you Smile

Right.

This is not so easy.
Of course you should start with Lindner (Fliegen der Palaearktischen Region). However, it is incomplete (Sarcophaginae not completed) and some chapters are really out of date.
On the other hand, you are probably most interested in only a few genera, like Wohlfartia, Lucilia, Bellardia and so on. So you could start from the biological point and puzzle out the genera you might expect.

For Sarcophagidae, Thomas Pape in Copenhagen is the leading expert.
For Calliphoridae, you might try to consult either John Deeming in Cardiff or Knut Rognes in Norway. Both are, however, to my knowledge quite busy at the moment.

For Calyptratae on living animals (Oestridae and Gastrophilidae), I am more than happy to help you out.


Good luck

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

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