Leucozona
glaucia  |
||
| Another scarce species, Leucozona glaucia is described in Stubbs and Falk's book, British Hoverflies as "being rather local, occurring in many wooded districts along woodland rides and edges". This was exactly the habitat that we found several of these beautiful hoverflies, nectaring on the flowers of Hogweed in Warsop Wood on 23/07/06. They clearly preferred plants which were growing in shade. The species has not been found at Eakring yet and searches at other Sherwood Forest sites have so far proved fruitless. | ||
