The legs are black with some short yellow hair. Please add a note on the locality - if it was found in Central Europe, your identification seems to be right. Only D. harcyniae has black legs, too - but is quite different in other characters. Yours

Hi Dysmachus,

Just got back from holiday, so here's a late response:
Yes it was in central-europe. To be specific: in Germany, in Niedersachsen (georgsdorf, near Nordhorn). So I gather it must be atricapilla. Thanks for helping me out
Oh, by the way. So the yellow parts on the legs are only yellow hairs?

Hi Andre,

can you please give me the date you took the picture? I would like to use it to update my internet atlas on Asilidae at the end of this year.
