Robber flies were abundant in the Paklenica NP in Zadarska, Croatia.
Especially this species. At least to me they look like being one and the same species, although some have white and some have black bristles at the sides and the rear of the thorax.
Could it be Machimus rusticus?
Thanks in advance for your advice.
Regards,
David

As by now, the Asilidae specialists should have returned from their well-earned holidays, I would like to take another chance with my id-request.
Although I suspect that the lack of responses shows that determination of the exact species is probably tricky, can anyone at least confirm/indicate the genus?

Thanks in advance.
Regards,
David

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
