Asilidae for ID, C Spain--> Dysmachus trigonus
Piluca_Alvarez
Taken in tablas de Daimiel National Park, C Spain. Sitting on the shoe of a friend Grin on the 15th April 2012. Habitat is stony shot grassy ground near lagoons.

It looks different to any Asilid I have ever seen. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help.

Thanks a lot, Reinoud!! Smile

Could you confirm that this other specimen found in the same area on the following day is also Dysmachus trigonus? I think it is but I prefer to have the opinion of an expert Wink

Another view.

Yes it is Dysmachus cf trigonus. I have added the cf because many bristles on thorax and legs are reddish they are usually more white. Shape of ovipositor is tipical for D. trigonus.
