I identified this specimen as an Asilidae, possibly Laphriinae. Get anyone confirm subfamily and possibly put a genus or even species on it?
Am I correct to assume the prey is some Micropezidae?

Suriname, Wanica, Lelydorp, X-2012, open secondary forest

Thanks in advance,

Thank you very much josmal!

Is there anyone who is able to also identify the prey? Family level would be fine.

Best regards,
