What is A faunistic study on the hoverflies (Diptera: Syrphidae) of Shivapuri Nagarjun National Park, Central Nepal about?
Nepal is a mountainous country in the Central Himalayas, well known for its high biodiversity and unique fauna. The vivid habitat of Nepal seems to possess high diversity of hoverflies (Diptera: Syrphidae), however, little investigation has been done on these flies in this country. The present study aims to explore the hoverfly fauna based on present field sampling from the Shivapuri Nagarjun National Park. The field collection includes 454 hoverfly specimens belonging to 34 species from the park with three new country records: Graptomyza nigripes, Lycastris albipes and Volucella trifasciata. The photographs of dorsal and lateral habitus of all 34 collected species are presented. The present collection of hoverfly specimens in the park shows equal number of species in both subfamilies; Eristalinae and Syrphinae while none of the specimen collected from subfamilies Pipizinae and Microdontinae.
