Thorax, abdomen, head, wings? Do you know any book or web resource that explain the "dichotomous keys" to identify Diptera in general, or in specific genera? Thanks |

There is a key to the Asilidae subfamilies on http://www.geller...subfam.htm and the Central European genera on http://www.robber...rwort.html. The last revision of European Asilidae is published by Engel (1930) in German language. Afterwards several hundred papers are published yet. Except of a catalogue, a revised key is lacking. Yours
