It's a little difficult to say how common this 7-12 mm gleaming blue fly is in the Faroes. Large variations in numbers can be found from one year to another, from month to month and even from island to island. An analysis of 1900 blut-bottle flies collected in the Faroe Islands between 2005 and 2008, showed that only 76, or 4%, belonged to Protophormia terraenovae.
This species is very tolerant of low temperatures and can be found as far north as just 900 km from the North Pole. The eggs are laid in organic matter and hatch in about 2 days. The larva pupates in about 4 weeks, and some 2 weeks later the adult fly emerges from the cocoon. - Buy Now:

The name of the common dung fly is descriptive of this fly species, being one of the most common flies in the Northern Hemisphere. It is also very common on the Faroe Islands. The adult fly is between 5 and 11 mm, but the size varies greatly depending on temperature and diet.
The flies propagate in excrements, especially cow dung, on which the larvae feed. The adult fly can also, to a certain extent, feed on dung, but contrary to what one might think, the adult fly is a predator which hunts and eats other flies. The male spends most of the time on dung waiting for females and hunting other flies attracted to the dung. - Buy Now:

The housefly has followed human settlements across the globe. As a result, this 6-7 mm fly is now the most common and widespread insect in the world. It can be found all over, from the Arctic to the tropics, and it is also very common in the Faroe Islands.
Each female fly can lay up to 500 eggs in its lifetime. The eggs are approximately 1.2 mm long white and are laid in organic matter, such as animal carcasses or excrement. Even if the eggs are laid in such material, it does not constitute the larvae's diet; they feed on bacteria found in the organic matter. The larva pupates when it is 2-5 weeks old. The adult fly usually lives for 2-5 weeks, but it can live significantly longer by hibernating during winter. - Buy Now:
