Hello!

Can you help me, please, to identify this bee fly. It is family Bombyliidae. Its body length is 10-12 mm. I saw it in Lusatia, Saxonia, E-Germany.

Is it a Bombylius major or another?

Thank you, Freddy

I know this is rather asking for trouble with such a large genus but this photo looks so like my male specimens of Bombylius posticus Fab. that i think it must be this.
