Report on Brachystomatidae and Empididae (Hemerodromiinae, Clinocerinae) from continental Portugal and neighbouring countries

This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Wagner, Rüdiger, Andrade, Rui, Gonçalves, Ana (2025): Report on Brachystomatidae and Empididae (Hemerodromiinae, Clinocerinae) from continental Portugal and neighbouring countries. Zootaxa 5722 (3): 345-368, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5722.3.3, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5722.3.3AbstractCollections of Brachystomatidae and Empididae (Hemerodromiinae, Clinocerinae) in Portugal revealed many new records for this country and some new species: Hemerodromia auremensis sp. nov., Dolichocephala fumosa sp. nov. and Dolichocephala grandistylus sp. nov. The slide collection of F. Vaillant contained another new species, Wiedemannia guadarramica sp. nov. and more records of the French and Spanish faunas. Kowarzia subplectrum (Vaillant & Vinçon, 1987) and Kowarzia jalonae (Wagner, 1984) are new synonyms of Kowarzia sandaliae (Wagner, 1984). A collection from Morocco includes a species described from Spain. Field observations, including photos and videos, provide information of the hunting and mating behaviour of Pseudheleodromia haenii (Wagner) comb. nov.
