Very interesting specimen, not Compsilura though

eyes are bare (hairy in Compsilura)
ocellars strong (absent in C.)
third antennal segmen very elongated.

The apical scutellar bristles seem to be erect yet not crossed.If so, this should be an enormous clue to the real identity.

Any other pic would help !!

Only picture, but I often see it is roaming in the vegetation.
It is difficult to photograph.

Capture one, if it is that common, so we can make pictures from collection. It looks really interesting.

Wow ... I'd love to have one of those to key out - never even heard of that genus Smile
