Over the fine warm weekend I visited Gilfach (west) [30 species] and Blaencaerau [32 species]. New for the year was Lejogaster metallina. Some of the more interesting species included Dasysyrphus tricinctus, Eupeodes lapponicus, Leucozona glaucia, Leucozona laternaria, Melangyna compositarum, Melangyna umbellatarum, Orthonevra nobilis and Eristalis intricaria. Meliscaeva cinctella (72) numbers are now dropping with both Eristalis pertinax (282) and Eristalis tenax (105) taking over on the good crops of Hemp Agrimony and Common Fleabane.
