E-mail: [email protected] Results of the Diptera identifications in the materials collected by the workers of the Hungar- ian Natural History Museum (HNHM) in Thailand in 2003 and 2004 are reported (supple- mented by a collection in 2000 of the MHNG). A summary of the dipterous families and gen- era represented in Thailand are given with references to the species representations. Twenty-four families are reported for the first time from Thailand, by which representatives of 99 Diptera families are known from Thailand. Several genera and species are recorded also from Viet- nam. Three new genera, Asiodixa L. PAPP, gen. n. (Dixidae, type species A. maculosa sp. n.), Bisubcosta L. PAPP, gen. n. (Keroplatidae, type species B. oligoneura sp. n.) and Steno- cyamops L. PAPP, gen. n (Stenomicridae, type species S. thaii sp. n.) and a subgenus Para- myioides (Spinitrochanter)L.PAPP, subg. n.

There are families, e.g. Culicidae, Tabanidae, Strongylophthalmyiidae and Muscidae, where one may think that a majority of the extant fauna has already been made known. On the other hand, there are species rich dipterous families, e.g. Mycetophilidae, Scia- ridae, Hybotidae, Empididae, Dolichopodidae, Syrphidae, Chloropidae, Sphaero- ceridae, etc., in which only a minor proportion has been surveyed yet. Thailand was not a colony, and it was not a target for collecting activities as Taiwan was for H. SAUTER. The old material was scattered, the “classical” works on the flies of the Oriental region, or more concretely, of SE Asia contain rather few occurrence data, and Thailand (formely “Siam”) was the type locality of a rather low number of dipterous species. The publication of the Catalog of the Diptera of the Oriental Region (CDO; DELFINADO &HARDY 1973, 1975, 1977) was an important action in the faunistic survey of the Oriental flies but that was not a turning point in the survey of Thai- land Diptera. We estimate that more works and more first records of species were published in the last three decades than formerly. Unfortunately, as far as we are informed, neither a summary of Thailand Diptera, nor a history of the Diptera sur- vey in Thailand has hitherto been published. However, in some families, particu- Acta zool. hung. 52, 2006 100 PAPP, L., MERZ, B. & FÖLDVÁRI, M. larly so for those of medical and veterinary importance, professional collection ac- tivity, reliable identifications through international cooperation and publication of important, high quality papers were made. We think, that the most important mo- mentum in all this development has been the activity of highly educated Thai col- leagues, who are able to produce high quality papers, summaries, etc., mainly for the species of medical importance. Studies on physiology, genetics, toxicology, parasitology, etc., resulted in a number of papers published in the best international journals. Contrarily, there was no national collection of Diptera, which would serve as a solid base for a broad faunistic survey. Most recently, Prof. Dr. JARUJIN NABHITABHATA (National Science Museum, Klong Luang, Phatumthani) and other leading personalities of Thailand science decided to build such a collection. An es- tablishment of collection facilities (which is difficult and expensive under a tropi- cal climate) and creating positions for well-educated Diptera curators are needed as a starting point. All those were the elements of the situation in the faunistics of Thai flies, when the workers of the Hungarian Natural History Museum made collection trips to Thailand in 2003 and 2004. Two of us (LP and MF) spent a month there in 2004. We captured an estimated number of 250 000 dipterous specimens, which we se- lected under stereomicroscopes on site. We selected somewhat more than eleven thousand individuals (see more below); a good part of them were minuten-pinned on site, the

  • Diptera Fauna of Punjab and Himachal Shiw Alik Hills
    Rec. zool. Surv. India, 106 (Part-I) : 83-108, 2006 DIPTERA FAUNA OF PUNJAB AND HIMACHAL SHIW ALIK HILLS P. PARDI, BULGANIN MITRA AND R. M. SHARMA* Zoological Survey of India, Kolkata INTRODUCTION The Shiwaliks form the southernmost belt of the Himalayan range (the lower and upper Himalayas being the other two) and have an average elevation of 900-1200 m. At present, the Shiwaliks include the entire southwestern foothills of Himalayas from Indus River in the Northwest to the Brahamaputra River in the Northeast. The Shiwalik eco-region extends from about 29°33' N latitude and 74°80' E longitude. These ranges represent the southern most zone of about 8-40 km width and about 800 km length of Himalayas. The Shiwaliks of Northwest States spread over an area of more than three million hectares and represent most fragile ecosystem of the country. In the north, these hills fall in the districts of Udhampur, Kathua, Jammu and ultimately merging with Reasi and Poonch districts of Jammu & Kashmir. They extend in the southwest to across parts of Chamba, Kangra, Bilaspur, Una, Hamirpur, Solan and Sirmour districts in Himachal Pradesh; Guradaspur, Hoshiarpur, Nawashahar and Roopnagar in Punjab; Union territory of Chandigarh; Ambala, Panchkula, Yamunanagar in Haryana; Dehradun, Haridwar, Udhamsinghnagar in Uttaranchal and Saharanpur and Rampur in Uttar Pradesh. Out of three million hectares, Punjab Shiwaliks accounts for 0.14 million hectares where as Himachal 1.14 million hectares. The Shiwalik ranges or the outer Himalayas gradually rise from the Indo-Gangetic Plains with a gentle slope of about 3-4 degrees till they touch a rugged topography and bare steep slopes up to an altitude of about 1000 m.

  • Diptera: Sphaeroceridae: Limosininae), an Almost Entirely
    A review of the Archiceroptera Papp genus complex (Diptera: Sphaeroceridae: Limosininae) by Steven Mark Paiero A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Sciences Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Steven Mark Paiero, December, 2017 ABSTRACT: A review of the Archiceroptera Papp genus complex (Diptera: Sphaeroceridae: Limosininae) Steven Mark Paiero Advisor: University of Guelph, 2017 Dr. S.A. Marshall This thesis has two parts. The first part investigates the relationships between the Archiceroptera genus complex and other members of the Limosininae (Diptera: Sphaeroceridae). A focus is placed on the relationships within the larger epandrial process group, which contains Bitheca, Bromeloecia, Pterogramma, Aptilotella, and Robustagramma, along with Archiceroptera, Rudolfina and several previously unplaced species groups. Molecular and morphological data sets provide the first phylogeny of the group, and were used to support the inclusion of several unplaced species groups within Rudolfina and Archiceroptera, while one new genus is described. Pectinosina gen. nov. includes two species: P. prominens (Duda), previously placed in Rudolfina, and P. carro n. sp. The second part of the thesis deals with revisions of Archiceroptera Papp and Rudolfina Roháček. Rudolfina now includes 13 described species, nine of which are newly described here (R. bucki, R. exuberata, R. howdeni, R. megepandria, R. pauca, R. pilosa, R. newtoni, R. remiforma, and R. tumida). Archiceroptera now includes 29 species, of which 27 are newly described here (A. adamas, A. addenda, A. barberi, A. basilia, A. bilobata, A. bisetosus, A. braziliensis, A. brevivilla, A. browni, A. caliga, A. calligraphia, A. cobolorum, A.

ZooKeys 441: 291–303. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.441.7586 Abstract A checklist of the Agromyzidae (Diptera) recorded from Finland is presented. 279 (or 280) species are currently known from the country. Phytomyza linguae Lundqvist, 1947 is recorded as new to Finland. Keywords Checklist, Finland, Diptera, biodiversity, faunistics Introduction The Agromyzidae are called the leaf-miner or leaf-mining flies and not without reason, although a substantial fraction of the species feed as larvae on other parts of living plants. While Agromyzidae is traditionally placed in the superfamily Opomyzoidea, its exact relationships with other acalyptrate Diptera are poorly understood (see for example Winkler et al. 2010). Two subfamilies are recognised within the leaf-mining flies: Agromyzinae and Phytomyzinae. Both are now recognised as natural groups (Dempewolf 2005, Scheffer et al. 2007). Unfortunately the genera are not as well defined: at least Ophiomyia, Phy- toliriomyza and Aulagromyza are paraphyletic in DNA sequence analyses (see Scheffer et al.

However whether, and to what extent, the very substantial taxonomic restructure presented in the book is accepted by the professional botanical community, only time will tell. In the meantime, while many orchid growers will enthusiastically embrace these new taxonomies, many others will exercise their valid right to continue labelling their orchids using the older taxa, waiting for the dust to settle on the scientific debate. In either regard there are difficulties for users of Jones's book, in their attempt to relate many of these new taxa to older species descriptors. The individual species entries in the text provide no prior taxonomic information whatever; and the index is of limited assistance, and far from complete regarding taxonomic descriptors commonly used over the past decade or so.
