Hello,
I'm a PhD student working on a revision of Lasiopogon robber flies with Rob Cannings, using a combination of genetic and morphological analyses. While my focus is primarily on Nearctic species, I would love to include as many taxa as possible in the phylogeny, including from Europe. I already have some of the common Palearctic species, but more of everything is welcome. So, if you happen across any more Lasiopogon this spring/summer and are able to preserve them in alcohol, I would be delighted to hear from you and help arrange shipment. Please send me a private message if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Tristan McKnight
