In "The Tachinids (Diptera: Tachinidae) of Central Europe" there are only two species of Phytomyptera (nigrina and vaccinii), but in the Norwegian species list there are 8 species. How is this connected? Morten |

Thank you so much, John and Theo! It seems that it will be difficult to come to a species determination.. Morten |
