Abstract
Abstract. True flies (Diptera) are a hyper-diverse group of insects which are considerably under-studied compared to many other organisms. Here we report a list of taxa collected during the 2019 Fly School held in San Luis Obispo County, California, a region of the California Floristic Province biodiversity hotspot. From June 20th to July 6th, an international team of 35 entomologists collected and identified Diptera at 17 main sites across the county. The team identified a total of 68 families, 188 genera, and 133 species/species groups. Of these, we uncovered 21 potential new county records for California, expanding knowledge of geographic distributions for these taxa. We discuss the strengths and limitations of this list and suggest ideas for streamlining the publication of similar lists for other specialized taxonomic workshops.
期刊介绍:
The Pan-Pacific Entomologist (ISSN 0031-0603) is published quarterly (January, April, July and October) by the Pacific Coast Entomological Society, in cooperation with the California Academy of Sciences. The journal serves as a refereed publication outlet and accepts manuscripts on all aspects of the biosystematics of insects and closely related arthropods, especially articles dealing with their taxonomy, biology, behavior, ecology, life history, biogeography and distribution. Membership in the Pacific Coast Entomological Society includes subscription to The Pan-Pacific Entomologist, and Society Proceedings typically appear in the October issue of each volume.
