Hello,
Is it a hybotidae species?. If possible identity will be very nice.
Thanks a lot.

A male. If it was collected I might be able to put a name to it.

Many thanks to you both,
Unfortunately the specimen was photographed by my friend from Izmir West Turkey, not collected.
About Turkish Hybotidae we know practically nothing, am I right?
Greetings

Very little is known. Empididae have been studied a little better in the last few years.
