Hello!

Is it possible to tell more than Lucilia sp.? Both females were relatively large (9-10 mm), both from a blackberry hedge in northwest Germany, the first one from Sept-21, the second from Sept-26.

Black basicosta (rules out sericata and richardsi)

T1+2 does not contrast strongly with the others (rules out silvarum and bufonivora)

Also note T3 has short, fine, inconspicuous marginals.

We are left with ampullacea, caesar and illustris. I doubt it is ampullacea, so it is a toss up between caesar and illustris. I wouldn't like to say which (females are distinguishable by the arrangement of marginals on T6).

Hello, Susan!

Many thanks for your explanations! In the future I will have an eye on Lucilia and try to get better photos (until now I only took sporadic pics, because they were unidentifiable for me).
Best regards,
Jürgen

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
