[Syrphidae] Re: Introduced Syrphidae

Fri Dec 5 16:19:30 GMT 2014

Great summary Beatriz, the only correction is Volucella bombylans, this one
is not introduced, in fact Jeff Skevington et al. are working on a revision
of this species, looks like these are multiple species and might not be the
same as the European one.
Martin Speight and myself have some historical information in our paper
(send me an email if you want a PDF):
Speight, M.C.D., Hauser, M. & Withers, P. (2013) Eumerus narcissi Smith
(Diptera, Syrphidae), presence in Europe confirmed, with a redescription of
the species. *Dipterist Digest* 20:17-32.

Cheers
Martin
