Nationalnyckeln, Tvåvingar: Blomflugor (Diptera:awkwardyrphidae:awkwardyrphinae) is going to be released this month. This is the first of two volumes about Syrphidae. The next volume is supposed to be released in december or 2010 (information on the site differs). The illustrations seems to be amazing. Can't wait to get my hands on these.

"All texts are written in Swedish, but each species has a short English summary – Key facts. Many high quality illustrations, distribution maps and illustrated indentification keys in both Swedish and English makes the books valuable for an international audience."

There has also been information about a Tachinidae volume, but that seems to be delayed.

I'll definitely be purchasing these two volumes. They look very useful indeed.Smile
