[Syrphidae] RE: Syrphidae Digest, Vol 16, Issue 1

[Josh Rubenstein]

Hello,

I was hoping that someone would be able to direct me to a source on the 
literature for syrphids, maybe even a Bibliographic database or a relevant 
book.  I am interested in learning how to ID them here in Boston, USA.  Any 
help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Josh
