The taxonomic diversity of the IKIP Syrphidae holdings currently consists of 37 species in 21 genera. These taxa are listed below and the islands on which they were collected, from south to north, is given in brackets (the islands are designated by two-letter Island Codes). Islands marked with an asterik (n=29) represent published new records (see New Diptera Records). All determinations were made by Drs. A. Barkalov and V. Mutin (see IKIP DIPTERA REPORT).
