Anthrax georgicus
about 1-2 cm long insect, partially black wings, black body
@ monkey
It is definitely not Anthrax georgicus, since this one is not found in Austria, but US. I have some slight suspicion that it actually and really might be Hemipenthes morio, although I must admit, that I did not found any key criteria. Body/head relation, however, seems to match rather for Anthrax anthrax. Besides the cleared wing area might be smaller in Anthrax (and yours) than in Hemipenthes morio, so I am really not sure whch one it is...
I looked them up, and cannot decide
1) female A. georgicus
2) Hemipenthes morio
3) Anthrax anthrax
ah, could be bayucca... this could be a female A. georgicus
seems that way.. although the tail doesn´t have a white tip
It looks like a beefly. Tis is very similar, hope it gives you a lead:
