I think the same still applies. Too many genera the asilidologists from Northwestern Europe do not really know.

jorgemotalmeida 16 August 2007 16:52:03

I know Paul. But, at least, would be great to know the genus in some cases. E

And there are so few people who really can handle the Mediterranean species.

jorgemotalmeida 16 August 2007 11:28:01

there are so many asilids waiting for ID or confirmation.

jorgemotalmeida 16 August 2007 11:26:35

this affects the dispersion of insects as well. It is very clear that there are much more few insects than usual here in Portugal considering the season.

Jorge - dramatic changes in weather are a good indication of climate change impacts. It's been extremely wet (but warm at night) here in UK.

jorgemotalmeida 15 August 2007 12:25:15

it is raining here!! Very unusual considering the month. I don't recall when it rain like today in August.

I found many Haemotopta and Chrysops in Montesinho. Really that place is awesome for asilids and tabanids.

Very few Tabanus and Hybomitra this summer ... Mostly Haematopota and Chrysops.

jorgemotalmeida 14 August 2007 23:33:42

this summer was cold comparing with others. warming global is a lie.

Ehh, the poop-ups, I mean.

I see Paul removed the visitor stats. Perhaps it is that or Google Analytics that causes this.

jorgemotalmeida 14 August 2007 19:45:45

there are some problems in links.. It seems that when I gave to any the link of some thread it delivers the main homepage!! not the thread.

jorgemotalmeida 14 August 2007 19:44:35

I hope that nobody remembers to hack this site. Paul, I hope we have the backup of this wonderful site!

You are not the only one. I have started getting Ebay popups at home and at work when I log in to diptera.info. Sorry Paul - kept forgetting to mention it.

Thanks, ran Spybot,CWShredder, have Windows auto updates, Govt. IT warnings, AOL auto spysearch. Nothing! Am I the only one? None just now.

jorgemotalmeida 14 August 2007 16:55:05

spyware... beware. The best to fight against spyware is spybot, adware to clean those spyware. Better is formatting as I told before.

blowave 14 August 2007 15:53:47

They started yesterday as biensurfer.com, today it changes to libparade.com, then goes to ebay.com and it loads after going through the other URLs on the bar. I have AOL automatic spycheck, but will

jorgemotalmeida 14 August 2007 14:27:53

better make backups... and then format the hard disk..
