An old picture in which the Asilidae fly has a prey.
Is to say which fly it is..?
Picture is form 22-9-2007 Zeist, Holland

Sciaroidea, possibly a keroplatid (? Orfelia). Difficult to say with much certainty because several of the useful details get obscured by the background and wing (venation) is not visible.

Hello Paul,

I still have this picture, where you may see that it's a Keroplatid by the antennes...?
I tried to enlarge it from the real pixelsize.
Sorry, this is all I have...
Thank you for your reaction!

Regards,
Hedy

Could be Cerotelion.

So Paul, the decision is to make it an Cerotelion spec., OK!

Thank you and regards,
