An asilid, probably belonging to the Dasypogoninae > A bit weird looking Saropogon. A lateral picture would help and a better look at the front tibiae too.

Reinoud, I'm sorry to say that it is mainly "the look" (at least in a dorsal view). The head is rather angled forward and it has long, 'floppy' antennae; also the generalized venation (which in Ancylorrhynchus, cell m3 can be open or petiolate) and the 'bare' look of the body & legs (inconspicuous setae). Key to spp. (in Israel): Theodor 1980.

Cheers & very best wishes for a great 2017!

Eric

Thank you Eric! I found the antennae most troublesome : )))) I checked my Saropogon specimens and all have an open M3....something to remember..

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
