Durska, E., Kaczorowska, E. & Disney, R. H. L. 2005: Scuttle flies (Diptera: Phoridae) of saline habitats of the Gulf of Gdansk, Poland. - Entomol. Fennica 16: 159-164.
Results of a survey of the scuttle flies (Diptera: Phoridae) of saline habitats of the Gulf of Gdansk are reported. Within three study seasons (1999-2001), at ten localities representing coastal brackish and maritime habitats, 39 phorid species were collected. Among these, 36 were new to these areas, and Xenotriphleba dentistylata Buck was the first record for Poland. The dominance structure, phenology and abundance of phorids of saline habitats are described.
