Villanova Monteleone, Sardinia 24/05/2009 dimensions: around 8 mm.
I think Calliphora but it doesn't look C. vomitoria or C. vicina.

The third antennal segment is too short for Calliphora.
My guess is Protocalliphora (or Phormia?)

Hard to believe (but I've never been there)

Faunaeuropaea and Faunaitallia: Protocalliphora: absent to Sardinia
No reliable: also Lucilia is absent. I have captured 3 different taxon.
Idem for almost 1/4 of mine diptera.

1. Difficult to believ that Lucilia absent in Sardinia.
2. Protocalliphora has reduced thoracic setae, this fly - on the contrary. I'd say it is near Bellardia.
