27 May, Goksu delta, mid south Turkey. Flat sandy landscape, with reed, small shrubs, and lots of low herbaceous plant (10 sm). Silty influences present. Rather big fly. Some Choerades? Cor Zonneveld attached the following image: [93.56Kb] Thanks for your attention Cor Zonneveld |

Thanks for all replies! Are Turkish Robbers 4 + 5 indeed Machimus? Thanks for your attention Cor Zonneveld |

You're most welcome Cor. "Turkish...4: Machimus sp." is probably that genus; "Turkish...5" looks more like a Eutolmus sp. I'm hoping that Dysmachus or Danny Wolff - who know Palaearctic spp. much better than I - might identify these. Regards, Eric |
