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.
