Abstract: Choerades castellanii (Hradský, 1962) is recorded from Hungary for the first time. This
species was previously known only from Slovakia and Germany. Two specimens were identified
from the Diptera Collection of the Hungarian Natural History Museum and one specimen was
caught while sitting on a pile of logs right outside the Bükk National Park. One of the museum
specimens was caught close to the Croatian-Hungarian border, so the species can also be expected
to be present in Croatia. With 5 figures.Keywords: robber flies, Choerades castellanii
