It is a great loss for the study of Syrphidae in Sweden and for the whole Syrphid community. Hans did a very great job on the book of "Nationalnyckeln till Sveriges flora och fauna" in which the diagnostics and faunistics of 413 nordic species are described. He also helped me in many ways and encourraged me in the study of Swedish Syrphidae and it was partly due to his ethusiasm that I started to publish on Syrphidae too. I am very overwelmed by his sudden departure and will mis him strongly. Sincerely, Jeroen van Steenis.

I would be very much interested to obtain the following, if it is not too much to ask. It fits in my project to produce an updated checklist of the Portuguese Syrphidae (will be published this year), as well as a (near) future planned revision of Eumerus. Thanks!

I studied the mating behaviour of *Episyrphus balteatus* about ten years ago in Japan. I have been a question about the strange behaviour for a long time. I observed the strange behavior in twilight in the evening. The behavior was that the female and male of *E. balteatus* faced each other and fell down in the air in twilight in the evening. I observed it in insectarium and the cage. I estimated it was the mating behavior at that time. However, I know the mating behaviour that *E. balteatus* male rides on the female from some papers so I suspect my result considerably. I want to ask syrphidae colleagues if someone have observed *E. balteatus*took the strange behaviour. Have someone seen the behaviour in the rearing cage?

The picture contradicts the message in the text, and I do not know which is right. For long I thought that the picture was accurate, but since it also contradicts the message in our Swedish key (Bartsch, H. D. 2009 et al.) I now have to ask someone.
