It is a sequel to an earlier volume, British Hoverflies: an identification guide,[1] and covers the following families of flies, which collectively are known as the "Larger Brachycera": Acroceridae, Asilidae, Athericidae, Bombyliidae, Rhagionidae, Scenopinidae, Stratiomyidae, Tabanidae, Therevidae, Xylomyidae and Xylophagidae.
The book introduced English names for all included species, the first time this has been done in a scientific reference work for a whole group of flies.
It contains a set of photographic plates by David Wilson.
