In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <4F3660F8.2060705@Bio.kuleuven.be> Hi all I was just wondering whether there is some progress (published?) in the taxonomy of Dasysyrphus venustus? For years now I read here and there that this species is to be split into different new taxa. I myself when going through my collection find indead large variation in shape of spots on abdomen and face, and to some extent in the dusting, but I also have one indivudual clearly standing out morphologically from all others by having a protruding face and very narrow mouth. I have not had the time to compare genitalia. Any information would be helpfull. regards Frank From Francis.Gilbert at nottingham.ac.uk Mon Feb 13 09:58:34 2012 From: Francis.Gilbert at nottingham.ac.uk (Francis Gilbert) Date: Mon, 13 Feb 2012 09:58:34 +0000 Subject: [Syrphidae] any ideas?
