Chamaemyiidae is a small family of predaceous flies, including aphidophagous and coccido- phagous species. Little is known about their ecology, and partial failures of Chamaemyiidae-based biological control programs against aphids may be due to poor synchronization of predator-prey seasonal habits. In this study, we investigated seasonality of predation and prey range of aphidophagous Chamaemyiidae. A field survey was conducted on crops and indigenous flora in seven agricultural sites in southern Turkey. Seventeen host plant families were surveyed for Chamaemyiidae presence and 371 silver flies were studied. All Chamaemyiidae larvae were observed to prey on adult and young instar aphids in the field. Silver fly total larval abundance reached a maximum in autumn and early winter. Six species were identified: Leucopis annulipes, L. formosana, L. glyphinivora, L. revisenda, L. rufithorax and L. -

Diptera Chamaemyiidae) Described by Camillo Rondani: a Revision of Eight Silver Fly Species
Bulletin of Insectology 69 (2): 199-219, 2016 ISSN 1721-8861 On the identity of Leucopis (Diptera Chamaemyiidae) described by Camillo Rondani: a revision of eight silver fly species Alfio RASPI, Giovanni BENELLI Department of Agriculture, Food and Environment, University of Pisa, Italy Abstract The dipterologist Camillo Rondani described a wide number of new Diptera species, including 12 species of silver flies (Diptera Chamaemyiidae). The first Rondani description of Chamaemyiidae was carried out in 1847 in his research “Osservazioni sopra parecchie specie di esapodi afidicidi e sui loro nemici”. Among them, Ochtiphila obscuripes Rondani 1875 was considered by Czerny (1936) synonymous of Chamaemyia geniculata (Zetterstedt 1838). Later on, Raspi shed light on the identity of Leucopis palumbii Rondani 1872 (Raspi, 1983b; 1988); Leucopis bursaria Rondani 1848 (Raspi, 2003) and Ochtiphila frontella Rondani 1875 (Raspi, 2006). In this research, the identity of the other Leucopis species described by Rondani is estabilished. The valid species are Leucopis (Leucopis) aphidivora Rondani 1847, of which Leucopis fiorii Raspi 1986 is a new synonym; Leucopis (Leucopis) aphidiperda Rondani 1848; Leucopis (Leucopis) misaphida Rondani 1848; Leucopis (Leucopis) minuscula Rondani 1875; Leucopis (Leucopis) talaria Rondani 1875; Leucopomyia palliditarsis (Rondani 1875), of which Leucopis alticeps Czerny 1936 is a new synonym. Leucopis (Leucopis) armillata Rondani 1875 is a new synonym of Leucopis palumbii Rondani 1872, and Leucopis ballestrerii Rondani 1875 is a new synonym of Leucopomyia silesiaca (Egger 1862). Overall, concerning the twelve species of Chamaemyiidae described by Camillo Rondani, nine of them are still considered valid species. This study adds basic knowledge to silver fly systematics and has helpful implications concerning Chamaemyiidae-based biological control programs. -
Diptera) Collected in Southern Spain
Entomologiske M eddelelser 37 (1969) 97 Some Lonchopteridae and Chamaemyiidae (Diptera) collected in Southern Spain. With an appendix. By Kenneth G. V. Smith British Museum (Natural History), Loudon. The family Lonchopteridae has only one genus, Lonchoptera Meigen, which is represented in the Palaearctic region by 14 spe cies. The species are very variable in colour and numerous varie ties have been described and named, but these are ignored in the present paper since they have no true taxonomic status. Three species have been recorded from Spain (Strobl1899, 1906; Czerny and Strobl, 1909). Two of these are present in the material report ed upon. The family Chamaemyiidae is represented in the Palaearctic region by 9 genera and subgenera containing some 72 described species. There was much confusion in the determination of species until modern workers, notably Tanasijtshuk in the U.S.S.R., began biological studies coupled with detailed descriptions and illustra tions of the male genitalia. In the present author's opinion the genus Leucopis in particular should be regarded by Dipterists in the same way that Hymenopterists regard many Chalcidoidea, and descriptions or even determinations of some groups of species should be avoided unless reared series are available for study. The immature stages should be sought among colonies of Hemip tera-Homoptera of the families Aphididae, Adelgidae and Coccidae upon which the larvae are predaceous. Eleven species have previously been recorded from Spain of which 6 are present in the collections reported upon. The recorded species not present are Chamaemyia flavipalpis Haliday (= ma ritima Zetterstedt) and C. geniculata Zetterstedt (Strobl, 1900); Leucopis grise.ola Fallen, L. -

ABSTRACT BAYLESS, KEITH MOHR. Phylogenomic Studies of Evolutionary Radiations of Diptera
ABSTRACT BAYLESS, KEITH MOHR. Phylogenomic Studies of Evolutionary Radiations of Diptera. (Under the direction of Dr. Brian M. Wiegmann.) Efforts to understand the evolutionary history of flies have been obstructed by the lack of resolution in major radiations. Diptera is a highly diverse branch on the tree of life, but this diversity accrued at an uneven pace. Some of radiations that contributed disproportionately to species diversity occurred contemporaneously, and understanding the relationships of these taxa can illuminate broad scale patterns. Relationships between some subordinate groups of taxa are notoriously difficult to untangle, and genomic data will address these problems at a new scale. This project will focus on two major radiations in Diptera: Tabanus horse flies and relatives, and acalyptrate Schizophora. Tabanus includes over one thousand species. Synthesis focused research on the group is stymied by its species richness, worldwide distribution, inconsistent diagnosis, and scale of undescribed diversity. Furthermore, the genus may be non-monophyletic with respect to more than 10 other lineages of horse flies. A groundwork phylogenetic study of worldwide Tabanus is needed to understand the evolution of this lineage and to make comprehensive taxonomic projects manageable. Data to address this question was collected from two different sources. A dataset including five genes was sequenced from ninety-four species in the Tabanus group, including nearly all genera of Tabanini and at least one species from every biogeographic region. Then a new data source from a next generation sequencing approach, Anchored Hybrid Enrichment exome capture, was used to accumulate a dataset including hundreds of genes for a subset of the taxa.
