On behalf of an Ukrainian researcher (Mykitchak Taras of the Institut of ecology of Carphathions NASU) I would like to ask which Ephydra species might occur in the western part of Ukraine. He found some larvae initially identified as Setacera, but in my opinion belong to Ephydra. However, the number of species in this part of the country cannot be very high. He found the larvae in April in the reservoir of Dombrovskyy salt open-cast (Ivano-Frankivsk region) with mineralization of the water about 80-100 g/l. Any help in the Ephydra spec. fauna from this area would be much appreciated.
