--Boundary_(ID_haBsMcOhiZ77BWn/hOABJw) Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Sept. 3 & 4, 2011 - On both days at home in Wolfville I saw single flying adult big tan crane flies called European leatherjackets (latter often used for larval lawn "pest"), Tipula paludosa. Stephen Marshall writes that introduced Eur. leatherjackets and related species "have recently become common pests of turf in northeastern North America". He also says there are about 1500 species of crane flies in N. Am., and at least 15,000 worldwide.
