Doros (fly)

Genus of flies

Genus of flies

Doros is a genus of hoverflies. They are large slender flies, that mimic solitary wasp in slow flight. They have very limited flight period.

Species

  • Doros aequalis Loew, 1863
  • Doros destillatorius Mik, 1885
  • Doros profuges (Harris, 1780) (*)
  • Doros rohdendorfi Smirnov, 1926

(* Caution with historical usage of "Doros conopseus (Fabricius, 1775)" from misidentified material, elsewhere an unjustified emendation of Ceriana conopsoides (Linnaeus, 1758).
