List of Asilidae Species available for DNA-sequence Analysesby Torsten Dikow
The following list provides an overview of species of Asilidae that are currently available for DNA-sequence analyses, i.e. were collected in 96 % ethanol or similar preservatives. This list is primarily based on the collections that Torsten Dikow and Fritz Geller-Grimm have access to and does not list all species available worldwide. (For reference of which genes and species have already been analysed check the GenBank database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Genbank/index.html).
A number of people contributed to the collecting or organisation of the specimens in our list and we are very grateful for their assistance.
These are:
- Jason Londt (Natal Museum, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa) for Afrotropical taxa from South Africa (Jason is also building up a collection of ethanol-preserved specimens at the Natal Museum that will be accessible through loan of material in the future)
- Martin Hauser (University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, Illinois, USA) for Nearctic, Neotropical, and Australasian taxa
- Werner Barkemeyer (Museum Flensburg, Germany) for Afrotropical Leptogastrinae
- Will Reeves (Clemson University, Clemson, South Carolina, USA) for Nearctic taxa from the All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory (ATBI) taking place in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, Tennessee, USA.
- Jorge Artigas (Universidad de Concepcion, Concepcion, Chile) for Chilean taxa.
If you have specimens that could potentially be important for future work please do not hesitate to contact us and let us know. We are happy to curate all collections, house and label them appropriately, and make them available to the robber-fly community.
A list of target taxa that we are planning to incorporate in the future can be found here.
