Hi to all! A cadaver full of maggots... always good for filling the camera's memory card. ;-) I'm not even sure about the family (Calliphoridae, Sarcophagidae, ...?). At least this determineable? Size of the biggest (roughly estimated): 1.5 cm or a little more Found 19.6.2015, Austria, East Tyrol, Valley Gschloesstal, about 1680m a.s.l. (Coordinates 47.1262072N, 12.4667414E) Rupert Huber attached the following image:  [299.98Kb] Best greetings Rupert |

Most likely Calliphoridae. If it is in the sun, probably Lucilia, if it is in the shade, probably Calliphora.

Thanks Tony! Difficult to tell about sun or shadow. When I was there it was cloudy, but the cadaver was lying rather free, only the mountain slope (northern) could have made relevant shadows. But in June I don't think so. Best greetings Rupert |
