We consider the problem of parameter estimation for an ergodic diffusion with Fisher-Snedecor invariant distribution, to be called Fisher-Snedecor diffusion. We compute the spectral representation of its transition density, which involves a finite number of discrete eigenfunctions (Fisher-Snedecor polynomials) as well as a continuous part. We propose moments based estimators (related to the Fisher-Snedecor polynomials) and prove their consistency and asymptotic normality. Furthermore, we propose a statistical test for the distributional assumptions on the marginal distribution of the Fisher-Snedecor diffusion, based on the moment condition derived from the corresponding Stein's equation.
