The genus contains miniscule gray to brown flies that have a body length of around 1 mm (Figs 1, 2) and adults occur in sunny, relatively dry habitats. Hurleyella belongs to the so-called ‘micro-dolichopodids’, a collection of minute-sized, probably unrelated genera that make up a speciose component of the dolichopodid fauna in the New World (Robinson 1969, 1975; Bickel 2009; Borkent et al.

Keywords: Checklist, Oriental, Taxonomy, Biodiversity, Inventory, India diptera. I. Introduction The family Dolichopodidae, commonly known as Long legged flies, are one of the most diverse families of Diptera (Grichanov,1999). Adult dolichopodids vary in size from about 1-9 mm in length and can be recognized by their elongate legs, reduced wing venation, aristate antennae, and relatively slender build. Most species are metallic greenish-blue to greenish-bronze, while some others are non-metallic yellowish (e.g., some species of Achalcus Loew, Argyrochlamys Lamb, Neurigona Rondani, Xanthochlorus Loew and Xanthina Aldrich), or brown to blackish (e.g., several species of Micromorphus Mik and Medetera Fischer von Waldheim). Dolichopodids are widespread and are found in all zoogeographic regions (Robinson,1970; Dyte, 1975; Dyte and Smith ,1980; Bickel and Dyte, 1989; Negrobov, 1991; Pollet et al., 2004). In general, adults and larvae prefer moist environments including stream and lake margins, humid forests, saltmarshes, seashores, and freshwater seepages, where they often occur in large numbers.

Altogether nine species are recorded for the first time from Portugal and six species from Spain. Three species are described as new to science: Chrysotimus meridionalis sp. nov.

Key words: Dolichopodidae, Iberian Peninsula, Spain, Portugal, new species, new records Introduction The Dolichopodidae, or long-legged flies, are small to medium sized flies of slender built with a body length of 1– 12 mm. Most species have a conspicuous metallic green shiny body and relatively long legs. It is a large family of Diptera comprising some 7400 described species occurring in all biogeographical regions (Pape et al. 2011). In Europe more than 800 species and subspecies are recorded (Pollet 2004). Adults are predators on soft-bodied invertebrates and some are important control agents of pest species.

  • A New Species of Systenus Loew (Dolichopodidae, Diptera) from Slovakia
    ISSN 2336-3193 Acta Mus. Siles. Sci. Natur., 69: 161-164, 2020 DOI: 10.2478/cszma-2020-0011 Published: online 1 July 2020, print July 2020 A new species of Systenus Loew (Dolichopodidae, Diptera) from Slovakia Oleg P. Negrobov, Peter Manko & Jozef Oboňa A new species of Systenus Loew (Dolichopodidae, Diptera) from Slovakia. – Acta Mus. Siles. Sci. Natur. 69: 161-164, 2020. Abstract: Dolichopodid specimens were collected during a field work in Prešov town in 2019. Systenus slovakiensis sp. nov. from anthropogenic habitats is described. Differential diagnoses are given and illustrated. A key to females of Systenus species of the Palearctic is provided. From all other Palaearctic species of this genus, the new species is distinguished by snow-white trochanters and black femora. Key words: Taxonomy, new species, Systenus, Slovakia, Palaearctic Region Introduction The genus Systenus Loew, 1857 was separated by Loew from the genus Rhaphium Megen, 1803. Rhaphium adpropinquans Loew, 1857, which is a synonym of Systenus pallipes (von Roser, 1840), was designated as the genus type in the catalogue of North American dipterans (Foote et al. 1965). 37 species of this genus are known in the world fauna (e.g. Naglis 2000, 2017, Yang & Gaimari 2004, Yang et al. 2006, Grichanov & Mostovski 2009, Bickel 2015). Currently 11 species are known for the Palearctic (Kassebeer 1998, Negrobov 2005, Naglis 2017). This genus was placed into a separate subfamily Systeninae (Negrobov 1991), although some authors placed Systenus in the subfamily Medeterinae (Bickel 1986, 2015). Species of this genus live on tree trunks. The larvae develop in debris of tree-holes.
