As to be expected from you, excellent photographs. A male Haematopota. I'm thinking italica |

The first antennal segment seems to be long, which indeed suggests italica. However, the abdomen is much too dark, as far as can be seen in the pics. My guess would be either male H. pluvialis or subcylindrica, very difficult to tell from these pics. All these males are very similar. Theo |
