I caught this Oestridae, yesterday (4-5-2013) on Sardinia, not at a very high altitude (< 200M).

Is it a Cephenemyia, and if so, is the species to retrieve based on thes photo's?

Thanks in advance

Maybe the good (?) (not god) and the rich friend Ruud can go to that place and collect several Hypoderma for our joy. ;)
