Nemotelus (pantherinus) from Stratiomyidae. The elongated face is very characteristic for this genus among stratiomyidae. It is a male. Females have a mostly black abdomen and they are not always easy to tell apart.

Hi Robert, Kahis is right! The fact that the underside of the abdomen is white points to Nemotelus pantherinus (Linneaus, 1758). Jan Willem |
