 I'd guess C. vomitoria from the long orange hairs on the occiput.

 I'd guess vomitoria too, from orange hairs and the dark colour of the basicosta.
There is a nice key to Canadian Calliphoridae (which includes vicina and vomitoria) here: http://www.biolog...wr_11.html and a US key here:http://www.nku.ed...pecies.htm

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
