Abstract

The present faunistic note is an updating of Syrphidae (Diptera) fauna of “Foreste Casentinesi National Park” (Emilia-Romagna and Toscana, Italy), a site of conservation interest included as a focus site within the “National Biodiversity Future Center”, NBFC. The revision combines data from the entomological collection Guido Grandi (UNIBO) and recent records from the national pollinator monitoring programme (Italy).<br> The new recordings for the National Park, obtained by Malaise traps and entomological net, comprise 25 Syrphidae species, including also new recordings for Toscana and Emilia-Romagna Regions. The updated Syrphidae fauna of the Park includes now 116 species, three of which are included within threatened categories in the Red List of European Syrphidae. A typically Alpine fauna is emerging from the Syrphidae species recorded of this revision.
