Hello
Found dead on a sidewalk in NE of France (Distroff, 57925) the 15/06/2022. I think it is a female of the genus Tabanus, then between autumnalis, bromius and sudeticus difficult to decide, especially since he suffered a little (with a preference for T. autumnalis).
Body lenght : 22 mm, wing : 20 mm.

Hello Louis, I'm not sure as it's not the freshest one, but I think it's T. sudeticus. The size, the small triangles on the abdomen, sternites with pale rear margines...
Greetings, Eric Kloeckner
