Is this an Asilid? What a long probocis! I can't imagine an Asild feeding on something on a flower. Taken several years ago (23 April 2003), West Virginia USA. Stephen attached the following image:  [84.21Kb] --Stephen Stephen Cresswell www.americaninsects.net |

Not Asilidae, that is Empididae. |

Ah, Empididae, that makes more sense, thank-you!
