    Wow, that really reminds me of Leucotabanus annulatus, but I don't think the distribution extends to South America. Plus, yours is tan... Posted 6 years ago, modified 2 years ago

        Yep, weird. Oddly, I've always wanted to see one, but we don't have them in the NE US. Lisa may have them in GA though. Posted 6 years ago

    Just putting this here for reference. I can't find a species match for Colombia, though.
