Did your companions have to pretend you weren't with them? Grin Good to see you can remain focused on the really important things even in such a place.

Nope, no problems like this. Pfft

Now back to the fly, if mounted specimen will be photographed something more can be added?

thanks,

Well, if you can get a picture of the hind side of the coxa 3, for starters.
I'm not even sure whether this is Agriini or Sarcophagini.
Somehow, it might be the first.

So the question is: are there setulae on the back side of coxa 3 present. Have a very good look ! And start with Sarcophaga carnaria or so to learn this feature (they are present there).

I think cosmin was the only rational person in the Acropole seeing *Really* the important things. Grin Next thing to do: to visit Taj Mahal palace and find out for flies over there. Grin
