I found this Asilidae near the little village of Salbertrand in Susa Valley, Piedmont (Italy) at 1000 mt above sea level, on July 11th. Is it possible to identify it?

A male of the subfamily Asilinae. Maybe Tolmerus cingulatus? Wait for Reinoud for confirmation (or bucket of cold water on my head Wink instead)
