And it happened again  Every time I think I found a new Muscidae it turns to be Anthomyiidae. I have a large unit full of this kind of black and grey flies back home.Thank You Stephane. Jari |

It is either Anthomyia procellaris or imbrida. Check the characterfs in my key leading to imbrida as below: The membranous projection on st5 in profile looks a bit square ended: – Posterior margin of the lateral postsutural black spot on scutum distinctly indented just below the posterior intra-alar seta. Arista with longest hairs equal to basal thickness of arista. Hind tibia with more numerous ad setae (generally from 9–l5, occasionally more). sternite V in ventral view with the setae on inner margin of processes basally with longer uni- to biserial setae; in profile with wider membranous ventral lobe (somewhat square ended) and base forming a right angle with the sternite V process, and longer) lateral setae at base of processes imbrida Rond. |

Thank You so much for Your answer. I had finally time to look at the species again and as You could quess we have a procellaris. Nice to have a name to it anyway. Jari |
