Diptera: Muscidae) Journal of Entomology and Zoology Studies 2017; 5(5): 442-446 E-ISSN: 2320-7078 P-ISSN: 2349-6800 Some new records of the muscid fauna from Iran, JEZS 2017; 5(5): 442-446 © 2017 JEZS with the description of Helina irani spec. nov Received: 28-07-2017 Accepted: 29-08-2017 (Diptera: Muscidae) Eberhard Zielke Institute of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Research, Bulgarian Eberhard Zielke Academy of Sciences, 1 Tsar Osvoboditel Blvd, Sofia, Abstract Bulgaria The study of unidentified muscids collected in recent years in Iran and deposited in the entomological collections of the Moravian Museum, Brno, Czech Republic and the Institute of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Research, Sofia, Bulgaria respectively, revealed twelve different species which belong to seven genera of the family Muscidae. Six species, Phaonia erronea (Schnabl, 1887), Phaonia trimaculata (Bouché, 1834), Helina evecta (Harris, 1780), Lispe pectinipes Becker, 1903, Lispocephala mikii (Strobl, 1893) and Thricops bukowskii (Ringdahl 1934) are newly recorded from Iran. One species, Helina irani spec. nov. is described. Based on literature-references and the current investigation a table is provided, listing all 79 muscid species hitherto known from the country. Keywords: Diptera, Muscidae, newly recorded, new species, Iran, list of species Introduction The family of Muscidae is large and very speciose, with a worldwide distribution. Although species have been collected practically in every biogeographic region, the knowledge of the Muscidae is based primarily on the muscid fauna of those few countries, where Muscidae has been investigated more intense. From many large geographical regions, however, only little information on the distribution of Muscidae-species is available. This applies also for some parts of West Asia. For example, when studying unidentified muscid flies, collected in recent years in Iran, no compilation of the species, which are known from Iran, were found in literature. Although in total only 30 specimens, deposited at the collections of the Moravian Museum, Brno, Czech Republic (MM) and the Institute of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Research, Sofia, Bulgaria (IBER) respectively, were investigated, twelve different species belonging to seven genera were identified. Six of the species belonging to the genera Phaonia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830, Helina Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830, Lispe Latreille, 1796, Lispocephala Pokorny, 1893 and Thricops Rondani, 1856 are new records for Iran and in addition one new species of the genus Helina is described. The localities of the twelve species collected and a list of the 79 species, hitherto reported in literature from Iran, are presented. Materials and Methods For identification of the flies primarily the keys to the Muscidae of the Palaearctic Region by Hennig [1] and additionally the keys to the Muscidae of Central Europe published by Gregor at al. [2, 3] were used. External morphological features of the specimens were examined using a ZEISS Stemi 2000-C stereomicroscope. For the investigation of male terminalia the end of the abdomen was removed and placed in 10% KOH solution for about three hours at room temperature. Later it was washed, transferred to glycerine and dissected. After studying the terminalia were stored in a microvial containing glycerine. The microvial was pinned directly underneath the associated specimen. For illustrations an AxioCam ERc5s camera and for further processing Correspondence Helicon Focus 6 and Adobe Photoshop CS2 were applied.

A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Biological Sciences University of Alaska Fairbanks August 2017 APPROVED: Pat Doak, Committee Chair Greg Breed, Committee Member Colleen Handel, Committee Member Christa Mulder, Committee Member Kris Hundertmark, Chair Department o f Biology and Wildlife Paul Layer, Dean College o f Natural Science and Mathematics Michael Castellini, Dean of the Graduate School ABSTRACT Across the Arctic, taller woody shrubs, particularly willow (Salix spp.), birch (Betula spp.), and alder (Alnus spp.), have been expanding rapidly onto tundra. Changes in vegetation structure can alter the physical habitat structure, thermal environment, and food available to arthropods, which play an important role in the structure and functioning of Arctic ecosystems. Not only do they provide key ecosystem services such as pollination and nutrient cycling, they are an essential food source for migratory birds. In this study I examined the relationships between the abundance, diversity, and community composition of arthropods and the height and cover of several shrub species across a tundra-shrub gradient in northwestern Alaska. To characterize nestling diet of common passerines that occupy this gradient, I used next-generation sequencing of fecal matter. Willow cover was strongly and consistently associated with abundance and biomass of arthropods and significant shifts in arthropod community composition and diversity.

Abstract The morphology and ultrastructure of the antennal sensilla of male Hydrotaea (Hydrotaea) armipes (Fallén) are examined via scanning electron microscopy in order to highlight the importance of antennal sensilla as a source of morphological characters for taxonomy and phylogeny of Hydrotaea. Antennal scape and pedicel have only one type of sensilla, the sharp-tipped chaetic sensilla, whereas antennal funiculus possesses several types of sensilla, including trichoid sensilla, two subtypes of basiconic sensilla, coeloconic sensilla and clavate sensilla. These results are compared with previously published studies on other fly species, especially on H. (H.) irritans (Fallén) and H. (Ophyra) chalcogaster (Wiedemann), and there are possible uniquely derived characters or diagnostic characters examined on antennal pedicel and antennal fu- niculus, which suggests either affinities and divergence between species at subgenus level.

Most Lispe species are found in damp sandy and muddy environments, such as borders of marshes, seashore areas, swamps, lakes, ponds, streams, and rice paddy fields. Both adults and larvae are predators of various small aquatic insects. Previously, five species of Lispe had been identified in Korea: L. assimilis Wiedemann, 1824, L. litorea Fallén, 1825, L. orientalis Wiedemann, 1824, L. patellitarsis Becker, 1914, and L. tentaculata (DeGeer, 1776). In this paper, we record a sixth Lispe species, L. consanguinea Loew, 1858, for the first time in Korea. The diagnosis and illustrations of this species are provided in addition to a key to the Korean Lispe species.

PONT Oxford University Museum of Natural History, Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3PW (United Kingdom) and Department of Entomology, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD (United Kingdom) [email protected] Pont A. C. 2012. – Muscoidea (Fanniidae, Anthomyiidae, Muscidae) described by P. J. M. Macquart (Insecta, Diptera). Zoosystema 34 (1): 39-111. DOI : http://dx.doi.org/10.5252/z2012n1a3 ABSTRACT This paper deals with the 185 new species-group taxa that P. J. M. Macquart described in the dipteran families Fanniidae, Anthomyiidae and Muscidae, together with a further 5 species-group taxa that belong to other families, 9 replacement names that he proposed, and 1 nomen nudum. Notes are provided on the Diptera collections on which Macquart worked. In the Fanniidae, there are 8 species (and 1 replacement name), in Anthomyiidae, 33 species (and 4 replacement names), and in Muscidae, 144 species (and 4 replacement names). 85 lectotypes are newly designated in order to fix the identity of the names. The following new synonyms are proposed: in Anthomyiidae: Chortophila angusta Macquart, 1835 = Botanophila striolata (Fallén, 1824); Pegomyia basilaris Macquart, 1835 = Pegomya solennis (Meigen, 1826); Anthomyia brunnipennis Macquart, 1835, and Anthomyia fuscipennis Macquart, 1835 = Pegoplata aestiva (Meigen, 1826); Hylemyia caesia Macquart, 1835 = Anthomyia liturata (Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830); Chortophila caesia Macquart,

Insects and related arthropods associated with greenleaf manzanita in montane chaparral communities of northeastern California. Gen. Tech. Rep. PSW-GTR-167. Albany, CA: Pacific Southwest Research Station, Forest Service, U.S. Dept. Agriculture; 26 p. September 1997 Specimens representing 19 orders and 169 arthropod families (mostly insects) were collected from greenleaf manzanita brushfields in northeastern California and identified to species whenever possible. More than500 taxa below the family level wereinventoried, and each listing includes relative frequency of encounter, life stages collected, and dominant role in the greenleaf manzanita community. Specific host relationships are included for some predators and parasitoids. Herbivores, predators, and parasitoids comprised the majority (80 percent) of identified insects and related taxa.
