Dear forum,
I took this picture this afternoon in my garden. Is Asilidae correct and can it be further identified?
Best regards, Niek

and our only species is cyanurus (with some tiny little exception).
The tibiae are unnaturally reddish in these pictures

Dear Theo,
Thank you for your reply.
The picture was taken in the shade and I used flash.
That may be the cause of the unnatural colours.
Best regards, Niek
