Hi,
could this be another Asilidae species? I'm not sure about that...because to me it looks a bit different...somehow.
Thanks for your answer,

This one is an
Empis sp., belonging to a different family, Empididae. An expert could tell you more. (I am not one of them.)

Empis livida, as apparent from the pennation on the fore femora and the very slender cerci.
