I thought this would be an easier one, but it appeart not to be on an other forum. Is there anyone overhere who can help me? I also have a dorsal picture if necessary!

The epaulette is yellow, so it is vicina.
Calliphora are difficult to ID, much detail is needed in photos.

Thanks, Theo! But could you please tell me what is a "epaulette"? I think it must be something on the thorax, because you can find it on the shoulder of a uniform, but what is it with flies? I looked allready at the Anatomical atlas, but I can't find it there.

I'm sorry Theo! I'm new here, so I did what you suggested. I looked, but either I'm using Glossary the wrong way or there are no "epaulettes" listed?

It should have been there.

Paul gave this one

Okay! I've found it now! I think I couldn't find it before because it's a synonym and it is listed as Tegula;)
Thanks!
