Calliphora
Blowflies, or Bluebottle Flies, are shiny blue insects that love to buzz around. They help nature by cleaning up waste and are often seen in gardens and parks.
生息地: Urban areas
The Bluebottle Fly has a distinctive metallic, iridescent blue-green body, often appearing quite bristly. Its large, reddish-brown compound eyes and transparent wings complete its robust appearance, making it easily distinguishable from common house flies.
