I first called it Lucilia and now I'm not sure at all about its family ... Is it a Calliphoridae, a Muscidae ... ? Thanks in advance !!  Loire-Atlantique, western France, July 08 2011 pat_der2003 attached the following image:  [69.67Kb] |

It seems to be Neomyia cornicina, this angle of view isn't the best.

Many thanks Stephane !! I've checked my pictures but I ain't got other point of view of this one ... shall I store it as Neomyia cf. cornicina ? Thanks again ! |

Are there cows nearby? Neomyia cornicina larvae develop only in cow dung. |

Thanks a lot ! Indeed, there are fields with cattle (cows) around 2 hundred meters in a straight from this garden ... |
