Look at this one: http://flickr.com...667&size=o http://flickr.com.../163547668 I hope you like this one. It is one of my favourites... What are the things that this fly has in extremity of legs? http://flickr.com...163550566/ A very interessant duo.  Familia Calliphoridae? (I'm still learning, so if I'm wrong explain why, please.)http://flickr.com...163554222/ (this photo was taken in 8 June 2006) Familia Muscidae ? All photos were taken this morning - 9th June 2006 - in Valega - PORTUGAL. Edited by jorgemotalmeida on 09-06-2006 12:21 |

1. Lucillia (Calliphoridae). 2. Tachinidae. 3. Stomorhina lunata (Calliphoridae). 4. Tachinidae. Please have a look at the latest news item, too.  Paul - - - - Paul Beuk on https://diptera.info |

In next time, I will put directly the image here. No problem. For a bigger image I put a link. And what about those Tachinidae? Can we get the genus, at least? Thank you again. |

* 2 looks more like Rhinophoridae to me - with that huge petiole  * 4 looks like a rhinophorid too - I think I can see a petiole there too but I am willing to be proven wrong |

Considering the way M1+2 runs you could well be right.

The Rhinophoridae are very closely related to Tachinidae and look superficially very similar. They even have a subscutellum, though this subscutellum is usually partially membraneous. But when you have a long petiole AND bristly body it is likely to be a rhinophorid but there are other more subtle features that usually can't be seen on photographs.  |

Chris is right, it is a Rhinophorid and I could even guess Stevenia as genus. To add to the features: the calyptrae are small, quite unusual for a Calyptratae (Tachinidae included). I tell myself I can see a small calyptra on the pictures (maybe just my fantasy) Theo Zeegers |
