Is it only Calliphoridae that has those elongated faces? From near a pile of apples this autumn in midwest Sweden 2006-10-12. Id? Thanx!

Tachinidae for sure.

Mmmm.. a hint of blue or green on the abdomen - this could be
Onesia floralis (Calliphoridae).

It certainly looks very-very much like Onesia austriaca from Hungary. Given that O. floralis is the only O. species in Sweden, Tony does not take a very large risk.

Certainly no Tachinidae, so Calliphoridae would be my first guess
