Abstract

Nine species of hoverflies of the subfamilies Eristalinae, Pipizinae and Syrphinae are recorded from Ukraine for the first time: Cheilosia himantopus (Panzer, 1798), Orthonevra incisa (Loew, 1843), Neocnemodon verrucula (Collin, 1931), Pipiza luteibarba Vujić, Radenković & Polić, 2008, Trichopsomyia joratensis (Goeldlin de Tiefenau, 1997), T. lucida (Meigen, 1822), Dasysyrphus neovenustus Soszyński, Mielczarek & Tofilski, 2013, Platycheirus europaeus Goeldlin de Tiefenau, Maibach & Speight, 1990, P. sticticus (Meigen, 1822). Distributions of these species are summarized and species diagnoses are provided.
