Hello...

Sorry for my bad English Frown, but do you think this fly is a Calliphoridae and could be Lucilia sp ?

place : France, near Swiss, 1000 meters high, gardens at fall, after first freeze

date : 4 November 2006

length : 6 mm ?

Thank you for your advices !

Sad I'm sorry but I don't know why I can't attach my file, which is supposed to have the length and the type they should have...

Grin Yes ! It was just a stupid problem of spaces !

You made the photos so small it is hard to see the details. If the fly has green between the eyes, as it seems to have, it might be a Neomyia sp (Muscidae)!? Let's hear what the pro's say.

I'm inclined towards Neomyia, but the wing venation is a little odd - the bend in vein M is not quite acute enough. Perhaps the wings are not fully expanded. (It is very late in the year!)

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
