Platycheirus splendidus is a species of hoverfly. It is found in many parts of Britain and Europe. [1] [2] [3] [4]
Platycheirus clypeatus is a species of hoverfly. It is found across the Palearctic and in the Nearctic. The larvae feed on aphids. Adults are usually found on the edges of woodland or scrub, heath or along hedgerows where they visit a wide range of flowers.
Eupeodes luniger is a common species of hoverfly.
Leucozona laternaria is a European species of hoverfly.

Platycheirus albimanus is a common widespread species of hoverfly. A holarctic species its range includes Greenland, Iceland, Britain, mainland Europe, Russia, across Siberia to the pacific coast, the Philippines, Alaska, western Canada and United States.
Platycheirus manicatus is a species of hoverfly. It is found across the Palearctic and in Alaska.
Pipizini is a tribe of small to medium-sized generally black hoverflies, although some species aso have orange spots on their abdomen. This nondescript colouring can lead to some species being confused with other dark hoverflies from other tribes. The lack of a facial knob is a good defining feature which separates them from most of these other hoverflies. As with other species in the subfamily Syrphinae the larvae feed on aphids though there seems to be a preference for wax-secreting aphids e.g. Pemphigidae.
Cheilosia grossa is a widespread European species of hoverfly. Adults can be found in spring on sallow catkins and the larvae tunnel in the stems of various thistle species.
Anasimyia contracta is a European species of hoverfly.
Anasimyia lineata is a Palaearctic species of hoverfly.
Anasimyia lunulata is a European species of hoverfly.
Trichopsomyia flavitarsis is a European species of hoverfly.
Platycheirus angustatus is a species of hoverfly. It is found in many parts of the Palearctic, and in the Nearctic.
Platycheirus melanopsis is a species of hoverfly. It is found from northern Europe across to eastern Siberia. The larva is described by Rotheray
Platycheirus nielseni is a Holarctic species of hoverfly.
Platycheirus ramsaerensis is a Palearctic species of hoverfly. It is found along the parts of northern Europe that face the Atlantic. It is a member of the Platycheirus clypeatus group
Paragus constrictus is a species of hoverfly. It is found in Southern Sweden and Denmark, Ireland, Spain, Germany, the French Alps, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Yugoslavia and Turkey and Russia east of the Urals. This species may be distinguished from Paragus tibialis only by the shape of the male parameres. In both sexes it shares with P. tibialis the character of entirely pale-haired abdominal tergites, so it is distinct from Paragus haemorrhous which has dark hairs.

Eumerus funeralis or lesser bulb fly is a species of Hoverfly, from the family Syrphidae, in the order Diptera. E. funeralis appears in Peck (1988) as a synonym of E. strigatus (Fallen), but was reinstated as the correct name for tuberculatus Rondani, sensu auctorum by Speight et al. (1998).
