No idea
Please always take a frontal picture
That helps a lot

Thank you both for your help.
For the next time you see a horsefly, I hope to know what it is, and the importance of the front jacks ..
On this occasion, not knowing what it was, I tried two laterals. But in both shots, the gadfly was faster than my flash shot, and only photographed the plant that had settled. :|
Best regards.
