Heteropogon currani

Heteropogon currani is a robber fly species in the family Asilidae, described by Pritchard in 1935. As a member of the genus Heteropogon, it shares the characteristic predatory habits and distinctive courtship behaviors documented in congeners. The species is part of the subfamily Brachyrhopalinae, a group of generally small to medium-sized asilids. Like other robber flies, adults are predatory on other insects.
