Would it be possible to identify this large Asilidae?
Photographed on 30 June 2024 in Van Province, Turkey.
Thank you in advance!

Probably Stenopogon as well.

Hi,

Maybe Stenopogon cf coracinus?

Thank you Jonne, for the suggestion.

Is there a Stenopogon key of reasonable quality?

Hoi Johan.

There are of course the keys by Engel (1930) and Lehr (1963). Furthermore there are some Turkish checklists of which I cannot think of the authors.
I can send you the papers by Engel and Lehr.

Best,
Jonne
