Dear Dr. Campbell,

In spite of not having any experience in the capture of Syrphidae with =
flight intercept traps, I know this citation:

Using a single Malaise trap run for 15 years in England, Owen (1991) =
found that previously untrapped species of Syrphidae fell off rapidly =
after two years of trapping. Over 15 years, she caught a total of 43,749 =
individuals and 91 species, of which 71 (78%) were caught in the first =
two years.=20

OWEN, J. 1991. The ecology of a garden -- The first 15 years. Cambridge =
Univ. Press, Cambridge.

The text above was extracted of the article: Calibration of Malaise =
Traps for Studying Insect Diversity - Author: John Pickering, available =
in the Internet in the address: =
http://dial.pick.uga.edu/PROPOSALS/nsf.94.final.html

I just answer in the hope of helping the colleague in some way,

I want success for your work,

  Dear List,
  Are flight intercept traps useful in capturing Syrphidae?  If so, is =
there any particular method or placement of the trap that is most =
effective?
  Thanks in advance!
