if eyes are bare, could be a female Tabanus glaucopis...

No, T. glaucopis is completely different animal. This is probably T. promesogaeus (formerly known as bifarius).

Hi,

I have added a closer look at the eyes...
Thanks for the suggestion Libor & Jorge!

so when we see 3 stripes in bare eyes in Tabanidae, we have T. glaucopis and T. promesogaeus... Which are the other possibilities?

Glaucopis has another median callus, lower callus, subcallus, coloration... There are much more species with three bands: tergestinus, bifarius, quatuornotatus, nemoralis, decipiens, simovae, lunatus, marianii, and more and more...

Promesogaeus has the eyes hairy, and these are really bare.
It must be something in the glaucopis group, however, the subcallus is virtually bare.

So exclusus comes in mind.

Need to check my collection.
