Following earlier discussions about a syrphidology meeting, we are pleased to announce that the above 3 day workshop has now been arranged. We will meet in the lecture room of the Museum which can take up to 150 people. A separate room is available for posters, informal meetings, tea and coffee etc. For Friday and Saturday evenings a restaurant will be reserved for dinner. After the workshop excursions can be arranged to collect in the Alps.
Accomodation: many hotels are near the museum and details about some
of these will be posted soon. However the following website is useful:

I am having great trouble in finding anyone who can translate S Glumac's
interesting sounding paper on The Problem of Mimicry in the Syrphidae
(1962) Arhiv Bioloskih Nauka 14: 61-67. Does anyone happen to have a
translation of this work, and would be willing to share it ?
Thanks
Francis

Subject: [Syrphidae] Book request
Hello: I placed an order for the Colour Guide to Syrphid Larvae from the
Natural History Bookstore on June 12 of this year, and still haven't had my
order filled. I'm wondering whether anyone else has ordered and received a
copy of this book from any source in recent months? Thanks for your help. -
