I always have some problems with the Pegomya bicolor.
There seems to be more species who are looking very simular to the P.bicolor......so i always have doubt!
And mostly everyone presume that a Anthomyiidae with a dark grey thorax and yellow abdomen and yellow legs....is a Pegomya bicolor :D
I have to study further on Pegomya , so for now....
Pegomya cf. bicolor

Joke :)

According to Michael Ackland, our most skilled Anthomyid expert, there are 40 similar species...
