Sarcophagidae sp I presume ... and a wild guess -
Sarcophaga carnaria!? :) From just north of Stockholm, Sweden 2006-08-01. I gather I'd be lucky if it was possible to tell the genus. There are 74 species of this family in Sweden.
Edit: Subject changed (Sarcophagidae sp)

I'm not sure. Could even very well be Brachycoma devia (so no Sarcophaga).

Hi, I really doubt whether it could be Brachycoma; if you look t the border of the notopleura I think there are 4 bristles, from front to rear: small - big - small - big => subfamily Sarcophagini; there seems to be no trace or scar of stronger marginals on the second abdominal ring (tergite 3), meaning that in cannot be a Sarcophaga(Sarcophaga); I have the impression of 4 (scars) of DC setae, that suggests Sarcophaga(Liosarcophaga sp.
