Re: Insect or Invertebrates Identification
This Bee Fly has large reddish eyes, long legs. The proboscis is very long and it is feeding on nectar. The antennae are fairly long. The thorax has a humpbacked shape and looks hairy. The wings are clear.
This would make it a Geron species, γέρων (gérōn) means "old man".
