The dotted bee-fly (Bombylius discolor mikan 1796) A report on the survey and research work undertaken between 1999 and 2003 (ENRR583)

The first year of this project, 1999, was dedicated to survey while in subsequent years the time was more or less evenly divided between survey and research. The survey had two main aims: to confirm the presence of B. discolor at known sites, particularly where there had been no records for many years, and to discover new colonies.
