Observations from the TreeOfLife-200M dataset indicate that the species exhibits a distinct pattern of longitudinal stripes on the thorax, which is a common feature among flesh flies.[1] The abdomen typically displays a checkered or tessellated pattern, often with varying shades of grey and black, which provides effective camouflage.[1]
