Can anyone help with the id of this fly. I guess it belongs to Muscidae family, but I'm not sure.

It was photographed in Girona, Catalonia last May

Thanks in advance

Dear Aleix,


This is not a member of Muscidae, but of Sarcophagidae.
Only very few Muscidae have a well-localized bend in vein M in the wing.
The 'traffic-light'-red eyes points to Sarcophagidae.
It's a member of the tribe Sarcophagini, only to be identified by the male genitalia. So this is the end of the line ... (JJ. Cale)

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
