Dear all,

I wonder if you could help me identify this (a coarse identification would already be really really welcome): I'd say this one belongs to the Therevidae, but I'm not even sure about that. Found in early July in my garden near Erlangen, Germany (the garden is close to pine/mixed forest with orchards, 300m above sea level, sunny).

Thank you!

Antje

No. It is an Asilidae. :)

LOL Why is it that every time I think it's a robber, it's a stilt fly, and vice versa? :@ ;)

Thanks a lot, Jorge!
