Date: 2007-MAY-05 Location: Midwest Sweden (Dalsland) Habitat: Garden, resting on a tree Some Tabanus sp I think. Unfortunately the fly got scared off by a nosy ant so I only have this single photo. I'm thankful for any help with ID! Edit: Subject changed (Dark male Tabanid) crex attached the following image:  [136.44Kb] Edited by crex on 16-05-2007 16:48 |

Cant't ID it but looks more like a Hybomitra than a Tabanus |

I agree, a male Hybomitra. Impossible to ID from photo. However, given time and locality, H. lurida male is quite likely. Photo is consistent with this tentaive ID. Theo Zeegers |
