Request to use photo in our hover fly field guide
Sorry to contact you through bugguide but I could not find private contact details for you. We are finishing work on a field guide to hover flies of northeastern North America (http://www.canacoll.org/Diptera/Staff/Skevington/Syrphidae/Syrphidae.htm) that will be published later this year and would like to use this image if possible. Please contact me at jhskevington@gmail.com to let me know if this is possible or not. I can send you more details about the book via email, allow you access to a pdf draft copy of the guide and offer you a copy of the guide when it is published. Thanks for considering this request!
