 Hello, this is a Protocalliphora azurea (Calliphoridae) female. Very easy to mistake for Eudasyphora in the field with unaided eyes.

Best wishes,
John

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.
