... please donate your pics for the Syrphidae gallery?!
Iīll be glad to.
The first volume of Encyclopedia of hoverflies covers the subfamily Syrphinae. It is newly published, and the next volume will be published in december. So I have to wait.
I have sent the pictures to a swedish expert, too. But I guess he is on holliday - catching flies somewhere B)
One problem is, I donīt know how many spieses there are of Callicera in Sweden. Maybe only C. aurata and C. aenea?
Tarsus of aurata is dark, and femura as well. On C. aenea they are light. That indicates C.aurata (first picture). But I think the abdomen doesn't have the short golden hair. I donīt know. I guess I have to wait. :)
