Can anyone help with the id of this fly. I guess it belongs to Muscidae family, but I'm not sure. It was photographed in Girona, Catalonia last May Thanks in advance  |

Dear Aleix, This is not a member of Muscidae, but of Sarcophagidae. Only very few Muscidae have a well-localized bend in vein M in the wing. The 'traffic-light'-red eyes points to Sarcophagidae. It's a member of the tribe Sarcophagini, only to be identified by the male genitalia. So this is the end of the line ... (JJ. Cale) Theo Zeegers |
