A late Conopid. I guess it is Thecophora sp, so may be difficult to go to species level.

Thecophora spec. Could be fulvipes or some realy rare. It would be fine to check the specimen if it is collected.

Thx for the help with recent Conopid threads;

I'll check if I have the specimen. Usually I see very few Conopids. I see maybe 3-5 individuals a year. They are rather difficult to photograph in my experience, as they move on eaisy. THis means that I mostly do not have the specimens, but I do not know if i have this or not. I'll come back to this thread if I have the specimen.
