Calliphoridae(?) at the toilet. Further ID possible? Spotted in Suriname.

See Whitworth, Terry. 2014, A revision of the Neotropical species of Lucilia Robineau-Desvoidy (Diptera: Calliphoridae). Zootaxa 3810 https://doi.org/1...a.3810.1.1 |

Thank you both. For someone who photographs and tries to ID everything from slime molds to monkeys and everything in between, Withworth's key is unfortunately too technical; I simply don't know the technical jargon for dipteran morphology. Besides, I only have photos, no specimens (no permit). But knowing that it is some Lucilia already helps quite a lot. Edited by Auke on 04-05-2022 05:25 Your invert guide in Suriname. |
