Sepsidae (Diptera) records from Britain and Ireland to 1985

Biological Records Centre

Description

This is a historic dataset held at the BRC and used to create the 1986 Provisional Atlas (details below). It covers the sepsidae which are a group of scavenger flies. Data were collected by the Sepsidae and Muscidae Recording Scheme, now ceased operation.

Geographic Description

The dataset contains records from England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Recording effort was strongest in the south-east of England and there is reasonable coverage of England, Scotland and Wales. Recording effort was light and patchy in Ireland.

Purpose

To collate the data and encourage future interest and recording.

Data quality

Data were checked by the Scheme organiser at the time according to the 1979 checklist (details below). Early records were not included if thought to be dubious.

Methods

Conversion of the data from recording cards to electronic format took place at BRC.
