Would it be possible to put at a genus or species name to this large and dark Asilidae?
Photographed at Col du Zad, Middle Atlas in Morocco on 31 May 2022.
Altitude 2200 meters
Thank you!
Johan

An odd one; looks like a cross between Stenopogon and Asilinae. Probably one of those. A clear view of the wing venation would distinguish them.

Thank you, Chris!
I don't think I have a photo with clear view of the wing venation.
