This Asilidae fly, about 10-15 mm lenght, looked similar to some Neoitamus I have seen in the gallery. Found on the ground, 15-07-2011, at Can Grau, Beuda, Girona, NE Iberian peninsula, UTM 31T DG7477, 395 m.

It seems to be a species of the genus Cerdistus.

Hello,

I've checked at Fauna Europaea that in Spain there's only one species, Cerdistus blascozumetai, but in the Carles-Tolrà catalogue there are other four species in Spain. Also have read from you "In former times this was a female of the genus Cerdistus, now it's impossible to identify the genus without checking the internal structure of the male genitalia."
So, my question is: with which other "new" genera could be confused with "Cerdistus sensu lato"

Thanks in advance,

Rafael

Cerdistus and (A)neomochtherus are closely related genera. I can't see enough on the picture but i wouldn't be surprised if this is the same species as your Aneomochtherus cf confusus (again this is mainly based on the shape of the genitalia).
Greetings,

Reinoud

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
