I have this labelled as Rhinia apicalis. However I have another fly also labelled as the same, which I will not post just yet as it could add to the confusion. Can anyone help with a name for this fly?

This looks very much like my RHinia apicalis from Yemen. Should be good or at least pretty cllose.
