Well, I'm not saying Susan is wrong - it could be
caesar :) but I think (from all I have heard and seen) that this genus is too tricky to give an "identification" from a few photos - it might be safer to say "it looks like
caesar" or "it might be
caesar" ;)
Also, it is quite dangerous to do an identification by starting with a list of species that you know are in your area because distributions are changing all the time and it might be a different species of
Lucilia, previously unrecorded from that area. :D
