Lucilia it is, but the genus is very tricky. This is a male of either caesar, illustris or bufonivora, I think. See thread http://www.dipter...d_id=30170 and another one cited therein.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol
