Hello to all,

Saturday June 13, I found several copies of the Diptera Bombyliidae. Looking a little 'photo would seem to belong to the genus Thyridanthrax sp.

I await confirmation or correction, and if there are also some 'news on the biology.

Location: Boscotrecase (Napoli) - Vesuvius

Thanks David,
You can find out what are the diagnostic characters and have a little more about biology?
