Villanova Monteleone, Sardinia 24/05/2009 dimensions: around 8 mm.
I think Calliphora but it doesn't look C. vomitoria or C. vicina.

The third antennal segment is too short for Calliphora.

My guess is Protocalliphora (or Phormia?)

Faunaeuropaea and Faunaitallia: Protocalliphora: absent to Sardinia
No reliable: also Lucilia is absent. I have captured 3 different taxon.
Idem for almost 1/4 of mine diptera.

1. Difficult to believ that Lucilia absent in Sardinia.
2. Protocalliphora has reduced thoracic setae, this fly - on the contrary. I'd say it is near Bellardia.

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

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
