Hello,
I observed this Asilidae on the 23th of July in Bray-Dunes in the north of France. I think of a
Philonicus albiceps, what do you think ?
Cordially Maxime

Thank you very much, do you have a trick to differentiate it quickly from
Dysmachus trigonus ?

Bigger, longer legs, less hairy than Dysmachus, most importantly the ovipositor is not flattened laterally and has spines at the tip.
