 A stunning robber fly of the subfamily Laphriinae. Might be an Orthogonis sp. -- but can't see the diagnostic details to confirm this.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
