She is very large, right ? No pic of the abdomen ? It looks black and white, do you remember ? Theo |

Theo, I really don't remember, but not small for sure. And no more different angles, sorry. Near a small pond where sheeps come across to drink. What species are you wondering? |

The black antenna, shape of callus and lack of eyeband clearly indicate this is a large species. On the second pic, the spots on abdomen are white. Also the shape is diagnostic: female Tabanus rectus.. This is the first pic to my knowledge of a living animal showiing its eye colouration. Hence the fuss. Eye colouration is as in bovinus, contra sudeticus. Very nice indeed. Theo |
