hi flyforum,

I found this sun-bathing female Calliphoridae in the Amsterdam forest Acer-leaves.

What kind of Calliphoridae is this ?
Is it Lucilia? and is id possible?

It is female L. caesar or illustris. Needs someone with more experience than me to separate them, even with these excellent photos.

Thanks a lot Susan,

What makes it L. caesar or L. illustris in your opinion?
I like to know some of it, or is it 'just' the touch..(impression)

If someone want to see more detail from a specific part, I can cut that detail perhabs.


Like mouthparts, bucca, callypter and so on..
It would be nice if id could be possible of such a common Calliphoridae.


a more detailed-picture, for example

My problem with this one was that I thought the front end looked like caesar and the back end like illustris Shock so in the end I decided I couldn't call it.

A blown up crop of your second picture showing T6 and its bristles may give us an answer.

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
