Maybe you are also interested in the picture of my bufo bufo covered with eggs/larfs (subject: two different flies mating). It is very likely a case of Lucilia bufonivora.


This will not be Lucilia bufonivora. That species causes myiasis in life toads (and certainly not with so many specimens). This was a dead toad, so maybe another species of Lucilia or another calliphorid that can be found on cadavers.

And your Mintho is placed in the gallery. :)
