Aculeate Hymenoptera and Diptera assemblages at Dyfi National Nature Reserve – Ynyslas Dunes in 2019
A survey of the aculeate bees & wasps and flies (Diptera) of Ynyslas Dunes was undertaken in 2019 in an attempt to determine the current condition of this site for these taxonomic groups. A total of 57 aculeate species was recorded, 17 of which were to the dunes resulting in a cumulative total of 119 species now known from the site. Only 40 of the 102 previously-recorded aculeates were refound in 2019. 22 of the 38 aculeate species identified as part of the Ynyslas Dunes dune invertebrate assemblage (currently consisting of 141 invertebrate species) were recorded duringthe current survey, and four recognized dune-dependent species were added to the site list. Lasioglossum xanthopus was recorded from a 2nd Welsh locality and Osmia bicolor was recorded new to VC46, both representing significant range expansions

Five days were spent on Ynyslas Dunes between 5th May and 2nd August 2019, visiting when suitable warm and sunny conditions were forecast. On each day, at least two entomologists undertook survey work. For recording purposes, the site was divided into three compartments duplicating the recording areas used on the previous surveys. Specimens were Obtained by hand searching, sweep netting and pan traps set out in various locations within each compartment. Locations of nest aggregations and significant species were recorded using GPS
