Hi,

I think, Tabanidae.

Edit: Possibly Chrysops caecutiens?

Looks like male Chrysops sepulcralis to me.

Thank you very much for your help, Jürgen and Henrik. I`ve tried checking various websites and I think it is Chrysops caecutiens. Chrysops sepulcralis should have less dark brown on the outer third of the wing.
