Can't find a match - Lampria bicolor
Osceola Nat. For., Baker County, Florida, USA

Going through the pages of Asilidae, I must have missed this species. A match couldn't be found. Amy help would be appreciated.

Lampria
This is Lampria bicolor. A close relation to the Laphria. Big genus in Cnetral America. Only two in Florida.

Thanks for the ID
I am glad to have a name for this one. I am also glad that I am not crazy since no other pictures on bugguide are present. I feel so ignorant when photos exist that I miss. I am so glad that you are out there to help ID these. Thanks, Herschel!

Lampria
There are shots of the other species, L. fulviventris at my website. I will add one to bugguide later so we have both. I am glad people are sending robber shots to this site. And we now have both Dr. Fisher and Dr. Cannings IDing robbers here. Those are the real experts.
