Hi there,

this is a Choerades spec. I hope. A male?

Is it possible to determine the species?

Austria, Vienna, meadow with bushes (August)


Best,
Lorin

Is the genus (Choerades) correct?

If so, all the species in Austria should be covered by the Geller-Grim key for Asilidae.

Genus is correct. It could be a male C. fimbriata...

Agreed, Reinoud.

Following the key, I cannot find any other candidate except fimbriata.

Thanks for your help
