Physocephala tibialis
I.D. is tentative.
Great picture! And lucky to see this.(Carolina, he is actually holding her proboscis! I hadn't noticed until I saw your comment!).
Flies flies flies... always up to something !
Thanks. It seemed like the most likely species to be found in my area, but I know very little about insects. These were some of the most interesting flying critters I've seen around here.
Confirmed Physocephala tibialis!
Carolina, que observadora eres... eso parece...
great photo!
yes, is a romantic insect :)
Is he holding her antennas?
