Taken 2022 10th September, this was a kite-tailed robberfly (Tolmerus atricapillus), possibly female. In Sweden, they occur wherever there is open habitats or woodland edges. They're active hunters often seen during the summer. Name comes from the tip of their abdomen looking like the end of a kite. #animal #animals #djur #natur #naturliv #nature #insect #insects #fauna #insekter #insekt #robberfly #robberflies #tvåvingar #rovflugor #rovfluga #insectagram #wildlife #arthropods #arthropod #invertebrate #invertebrates #animalia #arthropoda #insecta #diptera #asilidae #tolmerus #tolmerusatricapillus #kitetailedrobberfly (at Erkenlaboratoriet) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnrnhXaoA6z/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
