Abstract
Willi Richters, a German entomologist interested in orthopterans, visited Iran in two separate expeditions during years 1954 and 1956. From these expeditions, he deposited 166 specimens of Bombyliidae in the Museum für Naturkunde, Stuttgart (SMNS). Linder (1975) studied these specimens and identified 42 species in 18 genera, including eight new species and two new subspecies. We found that two of his generic assignments were not correct and revise it.
期刊介绍:
Zoology in the Middle East is a journal which publishes original papers and review papers on ecology, zoogeography, animal biology, biodiversity, faunistics, systematics and morphology of the Middle East. It seeks to further the understanding of the Middle East as a zoogeographic unit and aims at improving the interchange of knowledge and ideas between specialists on different subjects and taxa.
