hi flyforum, Generaly I am not very glad with dogshit, but in this case I found some luck.. There where a lot of nice coloured 'fresh' Scathophaga's flying in the surrounding. 'from a discance' I could find species in the low vegetation and these Scatophaga looks like Scathophaga furcata. Is it correct? Scathophaga furcata?

Robert - don't know. Humeri and scutellum are grey brown, not yellow, but arista looks like it could be plumose in second picture. Plumose arista would make it S lutaria. If arista bare, it is S furcata.

Thanks Susan, It is S. lutaria, you can see the arista plumosa on this detai-picutre. Nice to know!
