This is a male horse fly. You may have to wait for when Theo is around to get a further identification. From our European perspective, the pattern on the eyes is very distinctive but maybe there are heaps of Japanese species with similar pattern.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I cannot identify this beautiful specimen based on this picture. My knowledge of the Japanese fauna is insufficient. So I really would need the specimen itself. Theo Zeegers |

Thnaks for your help. Can you suggest Genus? This was a very small fly for a Tabanidae. |

If you still have the specimen: Does it have functional ocelli on the vertex ? Are there any spurs on hind tibiae ? Otherwise, I dare not even suggest a subfamily ? It might in Chrysopsinae, but then again, it might be near Atylotus in Tabaninae. Theo Zeegers |
