[Syrphidae] Re: PDF request - Sommaggio 2001

[Steven Falk]

Its definitely one taxa Robert, variation in stigma colour etc is just down
to lighting conditions and mode of photography. All material has yellow bars
reaching the side margin. But I've been recording 'venusta' for years (I've
been recording syrphids since 1975) and am prettyu good at spotting when
something is not right - as is the case here. I'll check the ventral side
when I get a moment,

To supplement previous email. It is not obvious from pictures if the first
dark male has bands on tergites reaching sides or not. In case it is small
specimen and sides not reaching - good candidate for D. nigritarsis. I would
not be surprise if you have this species in northern Scotland.

Hi Steven,


Depending on what you believe D. venustus is... ;)

Nothing sure base on pictures, but I do not think you show one species under
the link. I mean the last pictures of the female with yellowish pterostigma,
yellow hind tibiae and fuzzy dusting on frons is something different the
first the pair (dark males and female presented at the beginning of the
gallery).


Do you have any picture of ventral side of those specimens? Is that narrow
equally broad band (in females only) or rather triangle-like dark spots in
both sexes?


Cheers

Robert

Afraid not Ximo, but whilst we are talking Syrphini, I'm pretty sure I've
got a new (at least to Britain) Dasysyrphus that is very close to venustus
(alongside which it was flying). It averages darker, smaller, narrow bands
on the tergites, male frons much darker, female frons with much smaller dust
spots. It was from Scottsih native pine wood areas in late May-early June
2013, when spring was delayed by 4-5 weeks (and Salix was still in
blossom!). Martin Speight has already provided some info, but interested to
hear what others think. See this link for images:

All the best,

Dear all,


Does someone has a pdf of the following paper?

Sommaggio, D. 2001. The species of the genus Chrysotoxum Meigen, 1822
(Diptera, Syrphidae) described by Giglio Tos. -Bollettino Museo Regionale di
Scienze Naturali, Torino, 18: 115-127.


I have seen two publication years in the literature: 2000 and 2001.


Many thanks!


Ximo
