Not
all the collecting this summer was so outstanding. I spent almost
two weeks in Washington (11 June - 21 June 2000) looking for
Thereva species without finding a single specimen. Only
three specimens of Pandivirilia represent his efforts
to collect therevids, but I was able to see the remarkable landscape
of Washington along the way. Are these pictures of Thereva
Country? I'm not sure that they are not, but I certainly didn't
find that enigmatic locality during this trip. As far as the
North American fauna is concerned, I'll have to rely on the
kindness of strangers (and colleagues) for any more North American
Thereva in alcohol. Strong datasets can always get a
little stronger. |
