Hi,

a large and robust fly with no bristles left. Very Bombyliidae look alike ....

To my absolutely untrained eyes it looks like some Syrhidae.

Yes, a syrphid, I think Senaspis sp.

Yes, I think so too, Senaspis sp., a female. Maybe even Senaspis dibaphus with the darkened wings.

Thank You. So after all not hairy species. A strange looking Syrphidae.
