Me210 lost North of Brindisi 04.12.1943

Does anyone know whether an LW unit lost a Me210 or similar aircraft North East of Brindisi on this date?

I am also seeking details of a Do217 (or similar aircraft) lost 07.05.1944 in the same area.

regards

Thanks chaps. It seems to confirm that it was shot down by Spitfires of 1435 Sqn.
