This fly (about 7 mm) was in my garden today (Koudekerke, Netherlands). It seems very common but still I cannot give it a name. Who can help me? wilde attached the following image:  [113.43Kb] Edited by wilde on 03-06-2009 15:44 Albert de Wilde |

Looks like a sarcophagid ... but without a male specimen it is hard to give an identification

It is rather small: about 7 mm. Most Sarcophagids are bigger? I found this male fly (about 8 mm) on the same place, but I have doubts if it belongs to the same species. wilde attached the following image:  [129.35Kb] Edited by wilde on 03-06-2009 18:04 Albert de Wilde |

Could the last photo of a male be the same species?

No, the last photo is a muscid - the wing venation is different
