Hello,
I think this is a
Protocalliphora ?
There is 3 species in France :
Protocalliphora azurea, Protocalliphora falcozi and
Protocalliphora rognesi.
I don't have any information on how to differentiate the 3. Any ideas?

Hello Jessica, female
Protocalliphora is correct, but I think we can only exclude
P. rognesi with it's parafacialia rugose and like the fronto-orbital plates brown dusted making it look monchromic. We can not exclude
P. falcozi without seeing fore tibia's ventral side: it should have only 1 pv-bristle while
P. azurea has 2.
