 I would appreciate if someone could help me to id this fly. Could it be Calliphora vicina? Fly found indoors in Lund, southern Sweden, the first days of January. Best regards, Thomas

 Welcome to the forum Thomas - just remember the posting guidelines:
- no spaces or unnecessary punctuation in filenames
- file sizes must be <190KB
- do not use Preview with photos because it removes the file

Just edit your original post and try an upload again when you have fixed your problem Smile

 Thanks for the comments! The file names should be OK, but I did use the pre-view. I will try again. Thomas

I would prefer not to receive any more messages from diptera.info signed by Paul... (Thread reply notification)... Could they be signed by ‘The diptera.info team’?
