I think this is the biggest fly I have ever seen – about 60mm, ovipositing under the bark of a
Eucalyptus sp. From March, Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve near Canberra.

Unfortunately, the animale is out of focus. One of the biggest robber flies in Australia is
Neoaratus hercules, which looks very similar.

Best I could do unfortunately. It didn't hang around to let me get a better shot. Thanks for the suggested name.
