Sorry for bad photos.. Sad Now I will show many dead specimens I caught in some places. And I used another camera.. not so good for these kind of photos. Sad

thanks. I have much more bombyliids. I will upload more photos very soon.

Genus Villa is not easy really. Sad
If you was obligate to say the possible species which would be the possibilities? Smile
