Hello,

I observed this Diptera this 1st of September in Ambleteuse in the north of France. I think of a Neomyia cornicina but I hesitate with a Lucilia ?

Cordially maxime

Neomyia cornicina has fewer acrostichal bristles on its scutum:

Judging from the size of the gap between the eyes, I would say your fly is a Lucilia sericata, male.
