This female Tabanidae took a bite of me. That was the last thing she ever did. From today just north of Stockholm. Any chance of an ID? Edit: Changed subject (Tabanidae sp) crex attached the following image:  [57.26Kb] Edited by crex on 17-06-2006 23:16 |

Hybomitra sp., Tabanidae. Hybomitra has small 3-d eye (don't know English term) and stripped big eyes. For species level you have to wait for Theo. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

A typical female of H. bimaculata (thanks, Nikita). Broad vitta on tergites and notopleural lobes dark. For a real ID with keys you would need to see the head in front view. Quod licet Iovi, Theo |

The ID was already positive, and this picture does confirm it: small and converging frontal stripe, wrinkled lower callus Eyes with shades of reddish Theo |
