The Australian species in the above list will probably 

 all fall within Neoaratus Eicardo, Cerdlstus Loew, or 

 Neoitamus Osten Sacken. 



Dipterists interested in Australian Asilinae are re- 

 ferred to Eicardo (1913) for her comments on possible 

 synonymy of species, especially those of Walker. I 

 have accepted much of the synonymy she has indicated, 

 with some exceptions in closely related genera which 

 need further study, like Neoaratus Eicardo, Neoitamus 

 Osten Sacken, Cerdistus Loew, and Asilus Linne, sensu 

 stricto. 



Several dipterists have commented upon larva or 

 pupa or species of Asilus, in the restricted sense. These 

 are Frisch (1721),Brauer (1883), Xambeu (1899), and 

 Melin (1923), who illustrate larva and pupa of Asilus 

 crabroniformis Linne.
