Hello. This muscid is from Buenos Aires, Argentina - at first it looks like Musca domestica, but wing venation seems wrong for that species. Synthesiomyia nudiseta looks like a better match, but the distance between the eyes is not enough. Someone can help me define? Thanks in advance, Lucas LRubio7 attached the following image:  [149.04Kb] Edited by LRubio7 on 20-06-2020 03:01 |

In the temperate Northern Hemisphere the bent tip of vein M combined with red tip of scutellum usually means Muscina. |

You are probably right, John. I had totally forgotten about that genus. Thank you. |
