Keys

Some colleagues are using LUCID, which is a flexible and powerful knowledge management tool that helps users make an identification or diagnosis. Some few keys are avaiable and it is necessary to test them. For using Lucid keys, you must download the Lucid Player Standard first. The compiled keys are saved as ZIP-files, so you have to extract them first by preserving the directory structure.
A new CD has been released, an 'Interactive Key to Australian Fly Families' which is available for purchase at the following link: "Interactive Key to Australian Fly Families". It includes the family Asilidae and provides photos of various genera.
