I found this Atylotus female on 11th July 2019 (dry, sandy meadow, eastern Lower Saxony). Is it A. rusticus?

Thanks again, Theo!
I used your very fine Tabanidae key (Veldgids DAZEN (Diptera -Tabanidae) van Noordwest-Europa). Tabanidae are quite poorly known in Lower Saxony (Tachinidae even less, like meny other Diptera families), and Atylotus rusticus is not listed for Lower Saxony yet, so I wanted to be sure.
The same ist true for Ectophasia and Stomorhina - both genera are not published to occur in Lower Saxony yet.

kind regards
Jann

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
