Reason: Good quality, DOF and very good EV. The genitalia (the plum like red stuff) are quite clear. Image is also well id'd and can be accommodated in species article if and when created Flesh flies are among the most important flies in forensic science due to their reproductive habits on decaying matter, and this is the best mating picture wiki has of them mating. FWIW, in my experience, it is very rare to find them mating.

Comment I'm not surprised it's rare to find them mating.Every time they get it together,some goon with a camera appears and starts snapping away.You'd hide away somewhere too if it happened to you ;) Lemon martini (talk) 01:06, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
