Topic: New Conopid Fly

Chris,

A new conopid fly was found on Jersey - Thecophora cinerascens Meigen, 1804, (female) on Jersey, Channel Islands 21/07/2015.  David Clements has been helping with the finding.  A formal announcement of this new species will be very soon published in the journal Dipterists Digest.

Thanks for the reminder Steve - I saw that one come up on Facebook but I was trying to have a few days holiday so I didn't note it down. That has been created now though :)
