Milichiidae of the Lake Kerkini region in Greece

Edited by Irina Brake on Mon, 2010-11-15 09:50

Introduction

The Milichiidae fauna of Greece is virtually unknown, with only Desmometopa m-nigrum, Leptometopa rufifrons and Milichia pubescens (Brake 2000) recorded. However, thanks to the efforts of Gordon Ramel, who maintained several Malaise as well as other traps near Lake Kerkini in northern Greece, close to the border to Bulgaria, this has now changed. Sadly the first parcel with specimens sent to me was lost, so that the absence of data for some traps and times as well as the low numbers in some traps are not necessarily reflecting the original collection.
