Hello! Is this male Tabanid, visiting the UV light yesterday night (Ostwestfalen/Germany), a Haematopota crassicornis (rather dark wings)? Thanks in advance!

I'm struggling with this one! The first antennal segments appear to be extensively dusted, which suggests subcylindrica, but I don't know that species, and as it's supposed to have light grey wings, it hardly fits. Have you got pictures from any other angles? Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

The wings are quite dark, yet the first antennal segment is clearly and largely greyish dusted. Therefore, it cannot be crassicornis. Difficult to tell what it really is. Theo zeegers |
