up In the same place as Peleteria meridionalis thus probably they are hilltopping also. |

Can't be a Tachinid (arista is plumose, head profile very Calliphorid-like), must be a Calliphoridae like Bellardia or so. Theo |

Does this fly (or better these flies as I think these pictures are from two specimens) have a subscutellum? I bet it does not as I think this is Calliphoridae. Liekele |

I also thought this was Calliphoridae - looking at the side aspects I cannot see a subscutellum

Exact Likele, I collected two specimens. I think that the subscutellum is present. specimen1 christoophe attached the following image:  [68.18Kb] |

Ok Ok, retreat, that looks disturbingly much like a swollen postscutellum so, let me check this * arista plumose * parafacialia hairy * gena very high * prosternum bare or hairy ? * and would you mind checking the propleura for any hairs as well ? Thanks Theo |

Theo and forumeurs miles excuses, the previous photos of scutellum are Macquartia. I correct: - prosternum bare and yellowish with a black strip in the center - propleura hairy Once again I am sorry. Here is the good picture christoophe attached the following image:  [82.05Kb] |

You just saved my .ss Postscutellum is not swollen, so it is, indeed, a Calliphorid Luckily I didn't have time this week to think more on this problem. Theo |
