Hello diptera experts,

is it possible to determine this fly specie? It was basking on a stone. Unfortunately I have only a lateral picture.

[Location: Marburg (Germany/Hesse); 350 above sea level; March 2011]

Best regards
Stefan

Looks like Pollenia sp. to me (Calliphoridae) - usually no species-level ID possible Smile
