Hi,

as far as I got, I would say its a Calliphoridae belonging to the genus of Bellardia.

Am I right? Thanks for helping me.

mmh, don`t know. I said Bellardia, because it is actually so black. And Calliphora to me seems more metallic.

So, than its Calliphora?

Thanks Theo.

Regards, Nadine

I don't think it is Calliphora – the bend in M does not almost turn back on itself in the way it does in Calliphora.

I think it might be Pollenia – there seems to be a hint of golden hair on the thorax.
