Hoverfly Genera

Acrostic hoverfly genera

Each slide explores a different genus: The genus name is split such that each letter forms a sentence, highlighting unique features of the incredible syrphids within each group, posted alongside artwork and habitat preferences.


All the photographs and artwork featured are my own, making this a truly personal project.
Just added Episyrphus 14th January, previously Scaeva,Syrphus,Volucella and Helophilus.


Thank you for your support—every visit helps in keeping this project thriving. 
Drop by often and enjoy the journey into the world of hoverflies genera!
