Very interesting!!
But, in order to be able to work with it, a question: Are the keys to identify Chinese syrphids also in English?
Or is the whole book in Chinese, and only a small English summary at the end?
Greetings,
Gerard

Loepa , let me know which are the best sites for diptera photos in China?...

---

sorry Jorge, no diptera photo site in China! Please visit my website :p

---

Loepa,
2 things:

1 - your site is slow. :(

2 - we can just see the thumbnails! :o Please enable bigger images! There are very interesting flies to see.


Please fix "gallary" to "gallery" ;)

---

They certainly are interesting flies - and you can see them enlarged if you use the Chinese language site, rather than the English one! ;)
I'm amazed at the tephritid wasp mimic Bactrocera .
