robber fly, its basically the fly version of dragonfly, they love to intercept mosquitos and other fly prey. there is a quite a few parasitoid flies, that attacks different insect hosts. the strangest ones are BAT FLies, which has no wings and are mostly blind.
Oh, that’s fair. I just vaguely assumed they were called bat flies because someone once upon a time thought they looked kinda like the fly version of some sorts of bats, but obviously didn’t bother looking into that.
