Slovakia, Banská Bystrica, Kremnické vrchy mts. 750 m.a.s.l., forest patches, abandoned meadows, 6 July 2023, 18-20 mm. I keyed it out as Tabanus tergestinus, but I am not fammiliar with many characteristics and may by completely wrong. For example I think, the eyes are bare, but I have no idea how apparent are hairs in Tabanidanidae.

Hello Matej, I'm pretty sure you are right with female T. tergestinus. Your fly matches perfectly the description in Theo's book.
Greetings, Eric |
