This male Sarcophaga was found the 10th of August in Nijswiller, the Netherlands, in a forest. It looks like Sarcophaga (Heteronychia), maybe
Sarcophaga rondaniana Rohdendorf, 1937. What do you think?

If you look at the pictures of
Sarcophaga (Heteronychia) rondaniana in Richet, Blaackith & Pape, 2011.
Sarcophaga of France (Diptera: Sarcophagidae), it looks like the prigonite of
S. (H.) rondaniana should be much more rounded at the tip.

It did not look a nice fit to me also, but I couldn't find another good fit. I'll try to make some better pictures later, maybe this will help.

Hello,

It looks like it, but
S. depressifrons should have R1 with 4-7 bristles and this fly has no bristles on R1?

Hello Pierre-Yves,
Today, I was checking this fly again to make a little better pictures of the genitalia and this convinced me you should be right with
Sarcophaga depressifrons. So I checked vein R1 again and.. surprise.. because of a fold in the wing several of the bristles were broken, but I could still see the pores of the bristles. So I'm now convinced it should be
S. depressifrons.
