I received a sample from Costa Rica. Today I had some time to split some tabanids. Here the first.
First photo. Later I will add photos of full body.

Thanks to both.
I have Diachlorus sp. specimens too. Surely Theo will like to know this.

It seems to be a Catachlorops.
Any change we get to see a dorsal pic and/or a wing ?
