Asilidae, southern France -> Pogonosoma maroccanum
Erland
The most impressive robberfly I saw in France this summer. 9th July 2014, northwest of Montpellier, at the river L'Herault.
It was picked up from the water and kindly displayed to me by a Spanish Odonatologist. As it was wet, we gambled that it would not fly away.

If it's not a dragonfly, it might be a fly
