Hi, Can this brown hairy fly be anything other than Scatophaga stercoraria? It sat on a milfoil (Achillea millefolium) inflorescence on a paddock on 31 August, 2006. Thanks, Sundew Sundew attached the following image:  [183.13Kb] |

Dear Gabor, I take your "yes" as an answer to the headline question (and thus confirmation of Scatophaga stercoraria). In this case the answer to the interrogative sentence starting my thread should be "no"... I am happy - an unmistakable fly at last! Thanks, Sundew |
