http://flickr.com.../163547668 I hope you like this one. It is one of my favourites... What are the things that this fly has in extremity of legs?



http://flickr.com...163550566/ A very interessant duo. Smile Familia Calliphoridae? (I'm still learning, so if I'm wrong explain why, please.)




http://flickr.com...163554222/ (this photo was taken in 8 June 2006) Familia Muscidae ?

All photos were taken this morning - 9th June 2006 - in Valega - PORTUGAL.

ok. In next time, I will put directly the image here. No problem. For a bigger image I put a link. Wink

And what about those Tachinidae? Can we get the genus, at least?

Thank you again.

* 2 looks more like Rhinophoridae to me - with that huge petiole Grin
* 4 looks like a rhinophorid too - I think I can see a petiole there too but I am willing to be proven wrong Wink

Considering the way M1+2 runs you could well be right.

The difference between Tachinidae and Rhinophoridae is just that petiole? Larger in Rhinophoridae? And another difference in characters?

The Rhinophoridae are very closely related to Tachinidae and look superficially very similar. They even have a subscutellum, though this subscutellum is usually partially membraneous. But when you have a long petiole AND bristly body it is likely to be a rhinophorid but there are other more subtle features that usually can't be seen on photographs. Cool

Chris is right, it is a Rhinophorid and I could even guess Stevenia as genus.
To add to the features: the calyptrae are small, quite unusual for a Calyptratae (Tachinidae included). I tell myself I can see a small calyptra on the pictures (maybe just my fantasy)
