 Hi there,

I took these images in Sweden (05-06-2008) in the surroundings of ?sthammar (Uppland) in cow dung. Is it one of the Lucilia species?
Thanks for the help.

 Thank you SusanSmile
It really looks like it. So I'll just call it Neomyia sp?

 Andr?, try to watch on your bigger original size pictures :
If there are 1 presut. ac and 3 postsut. dc, it is Neomyia cornicina.
If there is no presut. ac and 4 postsut. dc, it is Neomyia viridescens.
Stephane.

 Dear Stephane,

Please help me with that. Can you point the hairs out to me on one of the images?
Thanks a lot.

 Thanks, this is Neomyia viridescens, less common than N. cornicina. Wink
