Size of a house fly, found near the sea. Looks like a Tachinid but I suppose it could be a Calliphorid.

Thanks,
Joaquim

Definitely a tachinid ... I always get these ones confused but it'll be something like Clairvillia or Besseria Smile

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
