I've had a very long and tiring day. Thank you for your time. johnes81 attached the following image: [57.63Kb] Edited by johnes81 on 07-06-2018 23:09 John and Nini. Naturalists not experts.

I am sorry for not searching harder but i am very tired. I want to relax a bit before bed. I noticed that it looks similar to Dioctria but i have zero experience with this genus. Plus, i am not very knowledgeable with Asilidae in general. I didn't know if i was even going in the right direction. I am happy that you confirm the genus but i am verry happy to know the species. I will read more about it tomorrow. I hope that you have a pleasant night edit: i will check the gallery tomorrow to see if we need some additional photos.
