This is not tabaniformis, I think.
Better to wait for Liekele.
Craticulina seems to be right.

Craticulina tabaniformis it is, at least in the first two photos.
Because of the length of the antennae which are not visible in the third picture.

However it is possible that what we consider C tabaniformis now, might be a complex of several species. There is some unexplained "variability" in length and color of antennae.

From this year i have this photo (19/08/2011) if you need antenae view. I suppose it is the same spec as the dunes are in a very small place.
Thanks a lot!
