REVISION OF THE TWO-WINGED FLIES OF THE FAMILY CLUSIIDAE. By A. L. Melander and Naomi George Argo, Of the State College of Washington, Pullman. The family Clusiidae, sometimes called the Heteroneuridae or the Clusiodidae, is generally regarded as one of the rarer groups of the Diptera. Seldom are its members met with in more than solitary individuals. In our experience in collecting a hundred thousand specimens of Diptera but a few dozen representatives of Clusiidae have been encountered. Previously there have been described from the entire world 13 valid genera and 55 species. Aldrich's Catalogue in 1905 listed but 2 genera and 12 species as known from North America. The sub- sequent publications of Johnson and Malloch have added 11 recog- nized new species to the American list. Fifteen species have been described from Europe and the same number from South America, while four species have been recorded from the islands south of Asia. The material secured for the present study, amounting to some 400 specimens, has produced 52 species, of which 25 are new. With the extension in distribution of species originally described from Europe or South America there are now known to occur in North America, including Central America, a total of 58 species belonging to 7 genera. Thus in its present status the family includes 80 recognized species distributed among 13 genera. The Clusiidae are restricted in their distribution to Europe, North and South America, and the East Indies. No species have been described from Africa, Australia, or Asia, but there is mention by Lefroy of the occurrence of an undetermined species in India.

November 2005 Genera Paraswammerdamia Friese and Eidophasia Stephens recorded in Israel (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutoidae, Plutellidae) Zlata GERSHENSON, Tomáš PAVLÍČEK & Eviatar NEVO Abstract: Two species of moths belonging to the families Yponomeutidae and Plutellidae were newly recorded in Israel: Paraswammerdamia conspersella (Tengström) and Eidophasia messingiella (Fischer v. Röeslerstamm). The first species was believed to be present in central and northern Europe only, whereas the second one is known also from Europe, the Caucasus, the Trans-Caucasus, and Asia Minor. Zusammenfassung: Zwei Schmetterlingsarten, die den Familien Ypono- meutidae und Plutellidae angehören, wurden erstmals in Israel festge- stellt: Paraswammerdamia conspersella (Tengström) und Eidophasia messingiella (Fischer v. Röeslerstamm). Von der ersten Art wurde ange- nommen, dass sie nur in Zentral- und Nord-Europa vorkomme, während die zweite auch von Europa, dem Kaukasus, dem Transkaukasus und Kleinasien bekannt ist. Key words: Lepidoptera, Yponomeutidae, Plutellidae, Paraswammer- damia , Eidophasia, Israel Introduction Yponomeutoid moths represent a worldwide distributed phyto- phagous group which occurs in very different landscapes such as forests, steppes, mountains, lowlands, deserts, and agricultural coenoses and which is trophically connected to 23 plant families (GERSHENSON & ULENBERG 1998). In spite of the ecological significance of this group, the fauna of the superfamily Yponomeutoidea of Israel has been insuf- ficiently known until recent time.

Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H
ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1). We combined this dataset with the environment1,2, it scales with features of morphology and physi- backbone hexapod phylogenies25,26 that we enriched to include taxa ology3, and larger animals often have higher fitness4.

Diptera) Attracted to Meat Baited Pyramidal Trap on Sapping Stump of European Walnut (Juglans Regia) in Central Bohemia (Czech Republic)
ISSN 1211-3026 Čas. Slez. Muz. Opava (A), 60: 223-233, 2011 DOI: 10.2478/v10210-011-0026-3 Records of interesting flies (Diptera) attracted to meat baited pyramidal trap on sapping stump of European walnut (Juglans regia) in Central Bohemia (Czech Republic) Miroslav Barták & Jindřich Roháček Records of interesting flies (Diptera) attracted to meat baited pyramidal trap on sapping stump of European walnut (Juglans regia) in Central Bohemia (Czech Republic). – Čas. Slez. Muz. Opava (A), 60: 223-233. Abstract: A pyramidal trap with combined bait is described and illustrated. The trap inserted above sapping stump of European walnut (Juglans regia) in a site in Central Bohemia near Uhlířské Janovice in 2010 yielded a rich spectrum of flies (Diptera). Records of 24 species most interesting from the faunistic, biological and nature conservancy point of view are given with comments upon their distribution and biology but a number of other captured species are also mentioned. Besides species developing in or attracted as adults to sap runs [e.g. Syrphidae: Ceriana conopsoides (Linnaeus, 1758), Aulacigastridae: three Aulacigaster spp., various Drosophilidae], other important components were formed by saproxylic [Xylomyidae: Solva marginata (Meigen, 1820), some Stratiomyidae, many Lonchaeidae, Milichiidae: Milichia ludens (Wahlberg, 1847), some Muscidae], mycophagous (some Asteiidae, Sphaeroceridae, Drosophilidae), necrophagous (some Sepsidae, Acartophtalmidae, Milichiidae, Sphaeroceridae) and saprophagous (some Sepsidae, Carnidae, Milichiidae, Sphaeroceridae) species, both latter attracted to meat-bait used in the trap. Aulacigaster falcata Papp, 1998 is the first record from Bohemia. Key words: Diptera, pyramidal trap, sapping stump of Juglans regia, meat-bait, new records Introduction A number of various trapping methods were developed to capture flies (for review and descriptions of traps see e.g.
