Diptera Reports
Diptera Report 2010
"Unsurprisingly most dipteran records still relate to the Hoverflies (Syrphidae), and it would be valuable to begin to focus our interests in some of the other groups. But of course identification can become problematic without access to detailed keys. I continue to be especially interested in the Empidoidea, and have recorded in 2010 several species new to me, although not new to the region."

Details of any species recorded that are new/rare/unusual to Wiltshire. "Ctenophora pectinicornis (fam. Tipulidae) (1f) nationally scarce, associated with dead wood, esp. beech."

"As a newcomer myself it is not easy for me to list what is ‘new to Wiltshire’, as there is, so far as I know, no published list of the Diptera of Wiltshire. However two records stand out amongst those recorded by me on Mapmate."
