A few new Symphyta

Three new Symphyta in the last few days, so they're beginning to get going. The battle between beetles and flies seems to be heading the way of diptera, with totals of 173 diptera and 167 coleoptera so far this year. Not many birds or moths recently, but for those who like their Odonata, this was a nice new species for the garden this morning.

Hairy Dragonfly (female)

  1. Flies are more speciose in Britain anyway, aren't they? You can't trust those coleopterists and their dastardly beetlist propaganda
