Mosca - Zebra ... As is usual with me, I have no idea. I see only very pretty and for his drawings and stripes, reminds me of a zebra. Some of you can identify. ? In mountain slope next to the coast, in Castell de Ferro, Granada, Spain.  Thanks and regards. Edited by Maherjos on 18-02-2011 02:42 |

Thanks to Paul and ChrisR. I suppose that the identification of the fly will stay in Sarcophagidae. fly flew, and it must be too far away to study their genitalia .... Indeed. If you ever had a chance to capture another specimen, how to do to study their genitalia?. The fly is beautiful. But his name is ugly: it sounds a corpse .... Greetings |

The name 'Sarcophaga' refers to the pupa Theo |
