Dear Syrphid friends,<br><br>
This summer, I have finished my phD on the relationship between prey
specialization and life history strategies in aphidophagous hoverflies of
the genera <i>Melanostoma </i>and <i>Platycheirus</i>. The investigation
involves laboratory work on the life history of four species (<i>M.
mellinum, M. scalare, P. clypeatus</i> s.str., <i>P. fulviventris</i>).
The literature on the biology of these species is reviewed. The
discussion focusses on the reproductive strategies of <i>Melanostoma
</i>and <i>Platycheirus </i>and the results are discussed in the context
of the habitat templet ecosystem approach.<br><br>
The work has been published this autumn: <br><br>
Dziock, F. (2002): Ueberlebensstrategien und Nahrungsspezialisierung bei
raeuberischen Schwebfliegen (Diptera, Syrphidae). - UFZ-Bericht 10/2002,
