| Summary | It is one of the rarest xerothermic species in Europe; in Poland known from one locality situated on the margin of the lower Vistula valley near Chełmno. The principal threat to its existence in our country is posed by quick successional changes occurring in xerothermic habitats (overgrowing with trees and shrubs). The species is not protected by law. Conservation of this dipteran should consist in active protection of its current locality and potential sites of its occurrence. | |
