hello Flyforum, It's almost freezing outside but the sun brought me some flies on my balcony. Is it Calliphora vicina? Looks a bit like it.. Robert, Robert Heemskerk attached the following image:  [91.62Kb] Edited by Robert Heemskerk on 26-01-2007 14:50 |

Robert Brown basicosta and reddish cheeks so I would say C vicina. The anterior spiracle isn't terribly bright, but it does seem to be brownish, and the beard doesn't seem to be really black, but I think is greyish, so I guess that's OK for vicina too. I'm a bit nervous now though that Theo has designated me as wizard.

Hi Susan, Nice to inform me about some characteristics of C. vicina. You could be right. I'll name it C. Vicina and put a little questionmark after it! thanks a lot for your help, Robert Heemskerk, |
