My publications on Hoverflies (also called flowerflies) concern new species descriptions, keys, faunistical overviews with flower pollinating, larval biology, importance of veteran trees, habitat management and conservation, creating artificial breeding sites, tree hoverfly lagoons or tree breeding boxes for saproxylic Syrphidae, first country records, red lists, endangered species and its decline.
