Moscow, park, 27 june, 12mm. Collected.
I badly need help of Asilidae expert.
According Diptera of European Part of Russia it is D. linearis.
According British Soldierflies... it is D. rufipes.

Will, I do not know if it will help you, but I think it is D. hyalipennis. No spots on naterior margin of tergites; mesonotum largely dusted and hind femur and tibia at least partly darkened.

Realy, antennal tubercle is low, as it should to be in case D. hyalipennis. I'll try to compare with zool musem material.
Thank you Paul.

Paul, I compared with Moscow Zoology Musem Dioctrias. Difficult genus!
As far as I could understand, you are right, D. hyalipennis.
