Another Asilid, Laphriinae this time. I made photos of two individuals that may represent the same species.

Again I apologize for the bad photos, the flash was out of order and also the sensore was dirty.

Another Asilid from the same location. Some Choerades sp I think.

3 Choerades species, perhaps C. fuliginosa, but for a correct identification it's neccessary to check the postpronotal lobe (humeral callus) and pleura (sides of thorax), which must be only slightly tomentose.

Don't know if I collected one. Have to check that...
