From a hotel park on the South-East coast of Crete, 25-SEP--2020, about 12-14mm. What did I see back than? Thank you, Jörg

Hi, Female Stichopogon with reddish antennae and reddish femora would in my eyes be S. scaliger but that is also the only species that I have experience with. God knows how many undescribed species occur in Greece. Best, Jonne |

Oh, a problem we probably have with all "more exotic" Asilidae (or all insects:-( ). Look at my Omani Asilidae ..... Would you agree on Sticopogon cf. scaliger? Kindest regards, Jörg |

They look different enough to be two different species, only with collected specimens one can say more about them. |

Sorry, misunderstanding - I just mentioned the Oman Asilidae as an example for potentially "new" species. So I go for Sticopogon cf. scaliger for the fly from Crete. |

Looks like typical S. scaliger (female) to me. Greetings, Henrik |

Great, so I remove the cf. - I would be happy if more of my Asilidae could at least be identified on genus level. |
