Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Calliphoridae - Calliphora vicina indeed

I thought this would be Calliphora vicina but don't see the yellow basicosta, so if it's vomitoria, why does it appear to have black hairs on the jowls? Or is it something else?

Does anyone have any thoughts on this one, please?

The basicosta is yellow, so I would be inclined to say Calliphora vicina.

Thanks Stephane. The ones I've identified previously all had much more obvious yellow basicosta - must be my eyesight then.
