Diptera R. Frey (MZH/Luomus)

Citation

Finnish Biodiversity Information Facility (2023). Diptera R. Frey (MZH/Luomus). Occurrence dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/fey985 accessed via GBIF.org on 2023-03-27.

Description

Richard Frey's worldwide Diptera collection. Ca. 10.000 species, including type material of some 700 taxa. Mostly material acquired by Frey, but some species have been added in the 1960s. A preliminary catalogue of species/taxa names is available for this collection. Data quality: Largely identified by R. Frey himself. Most specimens have not been examined after Frey's death in the 1950s, thus the identifications are largely sensu circa 1920-1955.

Sampling Description

Sampling

Variable and mostly unknown in a specimen level. Most of the specimens in the collection were acquired through purchases or exchange of specimens.
