 i would say Calliphora sp. (Calliphoridae) finishing emerging from the pupa.
that extended face I think that is ptilinum inflated in pos-pupa stage.

 Jorge is absolutely right, and the pale anterior spiracle, pale basicosta and orange jowls with black hairs all point to Calliphora vicina

Hi. Please delete all photos of E. carrapateira I've uploaded. I did not remember that I already had uploaded that species in particular. Except the pallidifacies (this was not present yet). Thank

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
