Hello,

is this a Pollenia species? I can't see any brown hairs.

Thanks, Michael

No. It is not Pollenia sp. I'd say Muscidae.

Probably Dasyphora albofasciata

Or Muscina ? (the reddish tip of scutellum might be not so obvious on this picture ?)

I resized the scutellum and brightened it. I think, there is something red. Probably it is difficult to see on the original image because of the sun.

If I look at the pictures for Muscina in the gallery, I suppose species identification is far from possible. I will mark the pictures as Muscina spec. Or are the some especially frequent species, which are found together with Calliphora in parks or villages?
