These seem to belong to Milichiidae. Can someone come up with a genus? Nikita had recently a similar fly in one of his threads.

Usually this it is Desmometopa that is found on preys of spiders, asilids and reduviid bugs. The preys usually are bees (as is this one?).

Thx. This was some kind of Apidae that fell prey to an assassin bug (Reduviidae).
