No, typical male Sarcophaga s.l. Red genitalia is a clue ( though this is shared by several species).

Thank you Theo,

I thought it cannot be a Sarcophaga because the hind coxae look bare, without the fine hairs that are the key for Sarcophaginae (Povolny-Verves 1997 book).

Hi Tamas

It is impossible t see these hairs from general habitus pictures.
They are pretty small and moreover, only visible in the proper angle of view.
Agria is more “Muscid-like”: shorter body and different shifting pattern on abdomen. Difficult to describe, but one you have a real Agria, you inmediately see what I mean. Like you see that Brachycoma is not a Sarcophaga.

Agria are generally relatively rare, so you can assume any Sarc to be a Sarcophaga sl., unless ......

Hi Daniel,
Sorry I just see your comment.

No, I do not keep specimen. Of course if I only new it was special I would have preserved it.

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
