Hello Ruud and Chris, I'm happy with this forum as I always thought that Tachinidae and Sarcophagidae cannot be determined. I found that some are more possible, which in nice!, and maybe from some photo's you can recognize the type, as sometimes I see a difference but probably it is not determinable.. Thanks for your reaction though..!! Regards, Hedy Edited by hedy2411 on 28-12-2010 00:08 |

Quite a lot of tachinids can be identified from photos by people who have seen lots of them (often though it will be "looks like..." not "it is definitely..." ) but it is impossible to give a 100% determination from a photo because keying features are not all visible Sarcophagids are often more difficult because so many of them are only identifiable reliably using male genitalia, so females can't even be identified even when you have a specimen Edited by ChrisR on 28-12-2010 01:58 Manager of the UK Species Inventory in the Angela Marmont Centre for UK Biodiversity at the Natural History Museum, London. |
