Any of you lucky enough to live in, or be visiting in the next few months, the Mediterranean area or Asia Minor, the Parageron and Usia will soon start to appear. If you would like to help with my work on these small beeflies please collect specimens and sent them to me. Specimens dried or in spirit equally welcome. It will be a few years before I publish but all contributions will be acknowledged. Please contact me if you would like further details.
