Hi,
I photographed this fly in Eindhoven, the south of the Netherlands, near a small river in the beginning of July.
I have searched other websites to determine this fly, but did not succeed.
I have created this thread in the Asilidae forum, because i think it is some sub family of a Asilidae.

Hope somebody can help me with the determination of this fly.
More help from this great site is appreciated.

Thank you very much,
Richard

Thank you both for pointing me in the right direction.
I really do think it is a "Cliorismia ardea"

Thank you,
Richard

As far as i understood, the species rustica and ardea are hard to separate. But you are close : )
