I think yes. But after the paper; Chandler P.J., Negrobov O.P. 2008. The British species of Xanthochlorus Loew, 1857 (Diptera, Dolichopodidae), with description of two new species. Dipterists Digest 15: 29-40, I guess hundreds of Xanthochlorus species inhabit Europe. Ask Chandler P.J. and Negrobov directly. Igor Grichanov |

Joke. Nevertheless, Europe is a champion by species numbers and a champion by synonyms.
