List of hoverfly species recorded in Britain
Additional recommended knowledgeCautionary note: Stubbs and Falk (1983), British Hoverflies, divide the family into a subfamilies and tribes. These subdivisions are now believed to be, to some extent, artificial groupings, not reflecting the evolutionary relationships within the family, and as such, are in need of revision. However, as no replacement system is yet in place, these groupings are retained in this list. The six unnamed species listed in Stubbs and Falk (1983) are not included below. This list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.
