"Dank der Hinweise und Informationen von Junkers-Peter wissen wir, dass es noch mehr Passagiermaschinen der Ju88 gab. So flogen bei der Lufthansa 1944/45 drei Junkers Ju88 S-3 als D-ASHJ „Panther", D-ASHK „Wolf" sowie D-ASHM „Jaguar" lost D-ASHM 22 april 45 Berlin Travemunde (verschollen)

Thank you for your answer.

According to Günther Ott they were
WNr 331394 D-ASHJ
WNr 331397 D-ASHK
WNr 331402 D-ASHM
All three in use from Sep 1944 until the end of the war.
Is the loss of D.ASHM verified? Ott has no fate for any of the three listed.

Indeed Snautzer, indeed

Ott's Lufthansa book is by no means "scientific", where we get treated with an endless number of footnotes listing sources for each and every detail.

However, I am quite familiar with Ott and his previous works and also his involvement with AGL and I trust what he states is not pure fiction.

"Your man" Stedinger is unknown to me, which makes me a bit more uncertain about his statements, hence my rather rethorical question (thinking out loud I guess). No intention by me to say that Stedinger's statement is wrong!

Stedinger Verlag is the publisher, Hans Werner Neulen is the author ...

Aha

Well H-W Neulen is very familiar to me, and I have a few of his books, but not this one. As far as I can tell, he is not prone to guesswork either :)
