In first time I think Calliphoridae but it has so strong bristle to be anything other that tachinid.
Think I good ?
Thanks

Let's return to the very first thought:
Calliphoridae.
What about Melinda ?

(it's 100 % not Tachinidae or Rhinophoridae, so technically not in my league)

I don't know where I can find some picture of Melinda.
Thanks Theo

Use the 'search'button. Melinda has been posted before.

Melinda is blue, I'm not sure yours is, so there is some doubt

Bellardia viarum is a possibility here I think.

It is blue but I had read the post about Calliphora uralensis so I note it is Bellardia.
Best regards

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
