Denmark, Fyn (West), Middelfart, coastal area, walking path near the shore, hedge with bushes like hazel, bramble and wild roses, at a leaf of Rubus sp., 11th of August 2016: (Photos: kuv). Is my idea "Lucilia cuprina" – after looking in the Diptera Gallery – ok? Please help to get the ID

Thank you very much John :) – Oops, I ignored that this fly is not living in Europe.
So I think that it could be L. sericata. Right?

Lucilia sericata has a broader frons than this fly and three postsutural acrostichals where this fly has two.
