Hi,
Here comes a rather big yellow Empis of today. We had already some threads concerning similar flies, but I do not dare to name it without experts' help.
Many thanks, Sundew

Paul,

Is it the only species with this Y-antenna ?

Nearly all Xanthempis can have the antennae like that: parallel first segments and divergent remainder of the antennae...
