Brief description
The black soldier fly was unintentionally introduced to Australia in the middle of the 20th century, where it has since become established in every State and Territory. Specimen records of black soldier fly, held at the Australian National Insect Collection (ANIC) have had associated information contained on labels, transcribed and geo-referenced in the Atlas of Living Australia's transcription platform, DigiVol. This data-set adds to our knowledge about the distribution and diversity of Australia’s black soldier fly, helping ANIC researchers determine exactly where the black soldier fly occurs in Australia and identify any overlap with the native species.Lineage
