INTRODUCTION This paper is an initial handbook for identification of the Canadian Agromyzid^ae, with keys to genela and species. Illustrations of the male genitalia gin6n for all species in #nich males are known, except for a few cases where earlier"r"e figures are available. No "comprehensive paper on the Canadian Agromyzidae has previously. been published, altilough d.sciiptiotts of isolated spccieihave been.pre-gi1.d .by 4lll* \tOzv1, ioquilleit (lg02i, Curran (193la,^D), Frost (192+r, Melander (1913)' and ina serids of papers by Malloch between 1913 and 1918. Records of Canadian Agromyzidae ha'ieb..n .onu.nienrly summarised by Frick (1959) in"his synopsis oiXotth American species, and among those he lists as occurring_in Canada I have been able to .onfit- 41 as correJt. Frick in all deals with 206 described North American species, but these also include 16 of Neotropical distribution from the West Indies and Central America. Here. 290 species are recorded for Canada and Alaska. A breakdown of these by genera is shown in Table I: 147 species are described as new' 2J are new to Norih"America,T2 are shown to be Hoiarctic, and 13 are discussed as probable or possible introductions from Europe. In addition seven new synonymies have been established between American ind European species; two American sPecies previously synonymised ale now .esotr.ct.d^ as diitinct; four European names have in th.'past been incorrectly used for species now. described as new; one species hitheito considered as reitricted to North America and the Neotropical I{egion is recorded for the first time in the Palaearctic-Region, in Mongolia;.and fini'lly, one Nearctic name has been incorrectly applied to a Palaearctic species. A section is included below on world distiitution, to facilitate an assessment the as a whole.- A complete of the Canadian Agromyzidae in relation to family . Nearctic revision would have erceeded the scope of this paper, although many species which have been recorded or r,vill certainly be found to occul in the United Srates are also present in Canada. Nevertheiess a small number of North American species and some others from Europe are briefly- discussed in Appendix A and a complete list of North American species not clarified or discussed in detail in this paper is shown in Appendix B.

MATERIALS AND METHODS Collections Examined The basis of this paper is the material in the Canadian National Collection' Much of this had been determined by earlier wotkers, in many cases correctly' but as a detailed examination showed, in some cases incorrectly. It has only proved possible to study selectively part of the 10,000 or so undetermined speci- hens, but many species of interesr fiom this material have been included. I have aiso studied approximately 1,000 specimens collected by V. K' Sehgal and myself in Alberta. to a lesser extent in British Columbia, in the summer of D66, Lnd also additional"nd material collected by myself in Ontario and Quebec in July 1967. This personal collecting was concentrated wherever practicable on i-R.""-"h Arro"iut",

Somi undetermined material fiom the United States National Museum, Washington, particularly from Alaska, has also been studied. Types of virtually all relevant species luve been examined. Unfortunately 'bien few it has possible to examine rype;-the in United States museums in only a cases. However, I have received greatest assistance in clarifying tyPes in the U.S. National Museum from Mr. G. Steyskal. Under "Material Examined" I have normally listed only Canadian sPecimens seen, but in certain cases where only very few specimens have been examined I have included references to material from Europe, the United States, or elsewhere.

P re paration of Descri ptiotts The descriptions have intentionally been kept brief, but it is hoped that they are sumciently complete to cover the main variable chalacters to give a uniqu€ combination, even when possibly later very similar new sPecies are discovered' It is felt that the illustrations of male genitalia, more than a lengthy description,

DIAGNOSTIC CIIARACTERS AND RANGE OF YARIATION Descriptions of Agromvzidae have in the past frequently been excessively long. In such cases the really significant characters can be Iost within a mass of detail which may not be necessarily relevant or diagnostic. It is felt that even brief descriptions can still provide an adequate diagnosis, provided significant characters are utilised. An attemDt is made below to outline those characters which in the opinion of the author ire the most valuable and sisnificant within the family Agromyzidae. At the same time an indication is giv6n of the extent to rvhich it has bien found that variation mav occur in certailn of these characters. In the adult there are four main groups of taxonomic characters which are of particular significance: Chdetotaxy. The bristles of both the head and the mesonotum are of out- standing significance, but do show slight variation. Color. The color of the frons, orbits, antennae, palps, mesonotum, scutellum, legs, and in some cases abdomen, provides numerous characters of importance, but again there can be some variation and caution is therefore required in assessing the diagnostic value of color. Size and shape. Many species can be separated on size or wing length, but there can be some overlapping. The shape of the head, eye, or third antennal segment is often significant and generally constant. MaIe genitalia. The genitalia provide a number of taxonomic characters of the greatest value, but it is invariably found that the aedeagus alone represents a character which is satisfactorily diagnostic of a species. Larval characters are particularly valuable in diagnosing certain species which mav not be seoarable on external characters. The most valuable of these are the arrangement oT the posterior spiracles and the formation of the mouth-parts. The leaf-mines produced by the larvae are also of the utmost value in diagnosing species even before adults are available, and the signi{icant characters of leaf- mines are discussed in a separate section below. The main characters which experience has shown to be of value in the groups briefly discussed above, are as follows:

Head There are normallv between three and six orbital bristles divided into two groups. The upper orbital bristles (ors) are generally inclined uprvards or slightly outwards; the lower orbital bristles (ori) may be inclined partly upwards but also frequently inwards. The strength and number of these bristles has great taxonomic significance, although there can be some variation within species. There are normallv two upper orbital bristles, v'hich may be equal in length, or the upper one is ireq.r.ntlli shorter or sometimes entirely lacliing. In feneral the relative strength of the ors is of greater taxonomic value than of the ori. The minute hairs immediately adjoining the eve margin referred to in this paper as orbital setulae can be used to diagnose many species, and in certain groups

The size ind degree of shine of the ocellar triangle is frequently a valuable character but some variation occurs and these characters are of somervhat secondarv importrnce. The shape of the lunule is of particular significance in separating the sub- genera of the genus Cerodontha, as indicated in Fig. 195. The eye in the Agromyzidae is generally bare, but may be significantly pilose as in Cerodontha (Icterornyza) pollinosa or Phytormyza nigra. The general configuration of the head can be of considerable importance. In most species the orbits are not greatlv differentiated but in certain cases such as Melanagrontyza airens they miy be'greatly enlarged laterally, or in others significantly raised above the plane of the frons, as inCerodontha (Dizygomyza) labradorensis (Fig.207). The width of jowl in relation to the eye can show some slight variation, but where the jorvls are unusually narrow or unusually broad this can be a valuable character. The facial keel is normally not pronounced, but may be conspicuously developed and of generic significance as tn Ophiomyir;t, where the raised keel entirely divides the base of the antennae. In thc same genus the vibrissa in the male is normally, although not invariably, replaced by a bunch of bristles which are fused to form a vibrissal fasciculus (Fig. 123). The shape and pilosity of the third antennal segment is of considerable significance. While the normal form is round or slightlv longer than broad with slight bur not pronounced pilosity, in certain cases the third antennal segment mav be elongated (Fig. ZO7) or may have conspicuously long pubescence as in Liriotnyza millefolii (Fig. 308) or Phytornyza lactucn (Fig. +50). The presence of a well-defined epistoma above the mouth-margin is of significance in some Phytobia species such as P. betulivora (Fig. t81) or the group of Phytom.yza species dealt rvith in couplets 29 md 30. The color of the various parts of the-head is of the utmost significance. The color of the frons and the antennae is obviously important. Ir may be yellowisl'r white, yellowish orange, brown, or entirely black. There can be slight variation in this coloration, but generally it provides a good raronomic character. In black species the antennae are invariablv black, while in yellowish species the third antennal segment may be yellow, slightly darkened, or entirely black.

Mesonotum The chaetotaxy of the mesonotum is of great significance. In the grass- feeding Agromyza species there are a number of dorso-centrals (dc) greatly reducing in size, and frequentlv with no pre-sutural dc. On the other hand in the spiraeae group feeding on Rosaceae, there are alrvays 3f 1 dc, with the pre- sutural one strong and well developed. There is some degree of variation in the number of acrostichals (acr), but in most species these are quite clearly either in two rows or in four or mavbe in six or more rows. In a few cases such as Phytomyza plantaginis and P. syngenesine, acr are entirely lacking. The presence or absence of pre-scutellars (prsc) is always of importance. In the case of lapunagromyzd this can be of generic significance, where the general arrangement of bristles on the mesonotum is as in Melanugrowyza,but this genus never has the well-developed prsc which are found in lapanagromyzd.

It can be partially yellow in some Agrontyza, Liriomyza, and Phytornyza species but is generally'gray or more rarely bror.vnish or brilliantly shining black. In a few Melanagromyza species it may be greenish or bluish.

Legs These provide a few good taxonomic characters, mainly color of the coxae, femora, or tibiae. The presence of a lateral bristle on the fore-tibiae is important for distinguishing some Melanagrornyza and f apanagromyza .species, and also Nernoriwyzd posticdtt;t. The presence of one, rwo, or sometimes mor-e strong bristles on the mid-tibiae is somewhat variable. but can nevertheless be of specific significance.

Wing The wing length is invariably a valuable character. Important venational -oresence characters are the or absence of the second cross-vein and its position, either towards the winq base or well beyond the termination of vein r'1 and also the relative lenqth of thi last and penultimate sections of vein m,*,. The extension of the costa t;the apex of vein m,." or its reduction to the apex of r*.u is signifi- cant, and also in many species the costal ratio. The color of the halteres is normallv but not alwavs constant within the different genera. For instance. in Ophiowyla there is one species, O. nberratts Spencer from South Africa, with entirely r'vhite halteres. Also in the genus Awaurowyza rvhere the halteres are normally black, they are distinctly paler, grayish irL subinfurnara N{alloch, while in rnaculosa N{alloch which may possibly be found to occur in southern Canada they are variegated, mainly white' but with a distinct black soot above. The color oi the squamal fringe is frequently a character of importance; it Ianges from silvery-white to jet blick and shows remarkably little variation.

Abdomen The color of the abdomen is constant in many species, for instance entirely black in most Agro?nyzd) or greenish as in Melartdgrolnyza virens or largely yellor,v in most Liriomyza. In Certain species particularly in the genus Phytomyza ihe hind-margins of the tergites mav be partially yellow, but the degree to which this pale color is present cin ,rary considerably and this character must be used rvith^caution. In extreme cases such as Phytomyza anemotli'.)orcr the abdomen is entirely bright yellow in both seres.

Male Genitalia The male genitalia in the Agromyzidae have now assulned ertreme signifi- cance, both for the identification of individual species and also for the clarification of gencric relationships. They represent a large complex of taxonomic characters rvhich show remarl

Other structures which can be of iignifrcance are the ninth stemite, which may be conspicuously rounded (Fig. Z5On7 or greatly elongated (Fig.327), the sperm sac in which the blade can be minute as'in Agrotmjza aockirothi (Fig. 15) or enormously enlarged as in Agromyzn fragaiiae (Fig. 32), and finally the surstyli which may have a.single stiong spine at the end asinLiriontyza philadelphivora (Fig. 3Zt) or"a conspicuous arranlement of bristles along the inner margin asin Agromyzil tacitct. (Fig. 67). A...rr"t. descriptions 6f genitalia rvhich will have real meaning to .later authors are extremely difficult to prepare in view of their complexity and three- dimensional nature, and one or mori illustrations will invariably be of greater value than long descriptions.

Larvae In a number of species lan'al or pupal charactels can provide a much mole ready means of identification than those of the adults. This is particularly true in the genus Melanagrontyza where the posterior spiracles arc highly difrerentiated and iniariably charicteristic of the speiies conceined. In the primitive form of posterior spiiacles, each has three bulbs as in Phytobia betuliaoru (Fig. 183) or there may be numerous such bulbs as in Ophiomyia simpler (Fig' 171). Thc mouth-parts can shorv sliqht but characteristic differences, as can be secn betrveen f Liriontyzd pelacttsis 319J. Tn: Liriotnyzr .nscl.epindis. Fig. ZOtl and lFig. anrerior spiracles and varibus sfructures on the cuficle can also provide goo.l diagnostic characters. LEAF-MINES X'Iost Aqromvzidae arc leaf-miners and the larva f orms a characteristic fecding prtte"ttr on a singlc plant, or mavbe on a grouP of related plants. This leaf-mine is in itself a laxonomic character of the greatest value, frequently permitting immediate determination of the species concerned u'ithout reference io the adult itself. Leaf-mines can be idcntified, rfter idenrification of the host- plant, according to the manner in v-hich the larva feeds and the particular part of the leaf in which it feeds. In most species the larva forms an upper surface mine. This implies that it feeds in the upper layer of cells lying immediatelv below the epidermis in the area of the palisade parenchyma. Such mines are readilv visible on the upper surface of the leaf. They mav be largely linear (Fig. 532) or serpendnabr they mav form an obvious blotch (Fig. 533), which ma1'be roughll. circular or irregular in outline. The mine mav adjoin the lcaf-margin or lhvays be in the centie of the leaf: it mav lie alons the midrib with lateral olTshoots (Fig. 3aS). In a smaller number oT species t"he larva feeds in the lou'er cclls of the spongv parenchvma; such mines are often entirely invisible when examining the lcaf from abovc, ancl frequentlv escape detection. The larva of,some species fceds in the cenrre of the leif betr,veen the nvo adjoining layers of the palisade and spongv parenchvma. Such mines are called inter-parenchymal and invariably assume a yellowish coloration. They are frequentlv clverlooked and not recog- nized as tiue mines. A furthcr type of feedine is the full-depth mine, in rvhich both Iayers of cells are ceten, the'mine then ippearing largelv t,ransparent. A further'whole range of characters of leaf-mines is pro.'ided 6y thc rvay in tvhich the larva deposits its frass. This may be in the form of small black pellets or short strips *l-ti.h may be u'idely spaced or interconnected, or alternately on one side of rhe mine and the other. The mine may be virtually rvithout frass until the very end, u'here the entire frass is excreted at once; this may be black or it

may be greenish. On completion of feeding, the larva may leave the mine through a semici"rcular exit slit, either on the upper surface of the leaf or on the lowel surface; or alternatively it may p"pri6 within the leaf, sometimes r,vith the anterior spiracles projecting througi ihe leaf epidermis in a characteristic fashion, or slued io the le"f on a pile of friss, as in Caly cotnyzd proTnissa (Fig. 266).

ORIGIN AND PHYLOGENETIC RET,ATIONSHIPS A number of fossil Agromvzidae have been described from Baltic amber and othcr Tertiary deposits, a"ll from Europe, but Hennig (1965, pp. 125-126). has shown that some cert"iniy belong to other families such-as Sciadoceridae, Clusiidae, and possibly Chloropidae, r,r'hile-the positior of all others remains doubtful, r'vith no pbsitive'evidence that thcy correctly belong to the Agromyzidae as at Plesent ,rnderstood, Hering (lg30b\ described PhytSrnyza lethT from a leaf-min-e from the upper N,Iiocene." Hendel (i931, p. 15) expressed so-me. doubt whether this represenrs an agromyzid mine at all, ind is even more doubtful u'hether it can correctly be asiociated u.ith the most modern genus Pltytonty_zt.- In his. descrip- tion Hering states, without any qualification, il.rat at the end of the mine there is a semiciicular exit slit and tiris'of course is characteristic of the leaf-mines of many species of Agromvzidae. This exit slit is not obviouslv visible in the phoiographs replodriced in Hering's paper, but there seems little reason to doubt ihat Flering's description was accurate on this important point. Henni! (1958, p. 611; 7965, p. 119) suggesrs thrt the.familv.most closely related to ih. Asrornvzidae is the OdiniidaE-but t'rites: "ldsst sich zwar ein entscheidend.t itotrd fiir die Annahme eines Schr'r'estergrupPenverhdltnisses zrvischen Odiniidae und Agromyzidae nicht beibringen, ebensou'enig aber ein entscheidender Gegengrund." I have recently examined the male genitalia of Odiniidre in the genera I{eoalticotnerus, Odinia, and Tragirlops a;d the general similarity of structure bctween these and the Agromvzidae is immedialely aPParent. Although the aedeagus itself is a reduced,"simple structure in the Odiniidie, the strong aedeagal apodeine, moclified ninth sternit-e, fot- of surstyli, and the whole general a-r-range- ment is exactly as in the Agromvzidae" There is clearly a closer similarity betr,veen the glnitalia of these" two families than of either to any. other family- Hennig's supiosition can therefore be confirmed and it can definitely be stated that tliere is a sister-group relationship between these tr'vo families. Rohdendorf (1964, p. 109) forma"lly adopts the same standpoint by reducing the Odiniidae to subfamilv status within the Asromvzidae.

Primitive characters in common between the two genera rre s?out build and large size, and enlarged surstyli divided by a complete suture from the epandrium. The yellorv scutellum of Selachops is a derived character present in a number of Phytobia species .such as P. diversata Spencer from Taiwan (Spencer l96la, p.81) and four of the five Neotropical species (Spencer 1966e, male genitalia Selachops have the -p. 143). The of (Figs. the ground-plan of ,1" divided aedeagus- 551, 552) belonging to Agromyzidae. Of particular interest, however, is the fact that this is the only spicies in the Agromyzidae having the apex of the scutellum betr.veen the scutellar bristles conspicuouslv haired. Itls sis'nificant that this is a characteristic of three of the six described genera of the O-diniidae Schildotttyia, Paratrtginops, l-nd Traginops (Shewell tlOO, p. 625) placed by- Hennig (1965, p' 120) in the sub- family Traginopinae. It ihus appeari- that not only are Phytobia and Selachops sister-groupi but the sister-group relationship between the Agromyzidae and Odiniidae ilready evident fiom the similariry'the of the male genitalia is further confirmed by the common characteristic of haired scutellum in the genus Selachops (Agromyzidae) and the sub-family Traginopinae (Odiniidae). Hennig (tlOl, p. 124) described as Piotodiiea ilectrica a ne-.iv.sprcies of Odiniidae from Baltic amber. In vielv of the sister-group relationship between the Odiniidae and the AgromYzidae it can thercfore be deduced u'ith reasonable certainty that the Aeror;"-zidae also cxisted as a distinct family at the time of the Baltic amber. which"is generatlv placed at lxfc Eocene or eariv Oligocene, -It.is worth noting here thai at approximately the same period at least some of the families of Acalvptrates were present and at a similar stage of developmen! 1l.ln. Nearctic Region.- Sabrosky (9ey describcs a new fossil species of lttilichiidae from Mexican amber, even placing it in the modern genus PhylloTnyz(t' All the 23 families so fJr known to be represented in Baltic amber are those containing relatively few present-day species. Hennig ( 1965, p. 28) erpresses some surprise that iarge families such as Trl'petidae, rvitl'r up to 3,500 modern species, ri.d ,ho Agroityzidae, have not yet been confirmed from amber deposits. There are two immediate possible explanations for this lack of AgromVzidae-in amber. The dominant trei in the Amber forcsts was pine and certainly under presenr conditions pine forests provide the least iar-orablc conditions for Agromyzidae. Evenif large numbirs of species had already evolved at that time, itls thus conceivable thai relativelv few were present in the Amber forests' Among Acalyprrates rhe Agromr zidae are onc oI the families with- the largest number of spe-ies and it seems certain that the actual u'orld total to-day must be substantially in excess of 2,500 species.

Thus even accepting the probability that the Agromyzidae as such existed atihe time of the Amber deposits. it seems very probable that the number of species t as small.

WORLD DISTRIBUTION The world total of described Agromyzidae is now 1,638 species and a breakdor.vn by genela and zoogeographical regions is given in Table II. A summary by regions is shown in Table III.

Although Agromyzidae have now been collected and studied from all regions, there are still maior gaps in our knowledge and the overall picture as seen to-day r.vill inevitably change to some extent with further collecting, particularlv in the United States and the Neotropical and Oriental reqions. Nevertheless certain important facts of regional distribution now emerg; which will probably only change in detail, not in essence, as our knowledge increases. It will be seen that the sub-family Agromyzinae accounts for 580 species, or 35"A of the total. This proportion is not likely to change substantially, as although many further Meldnagromyzil species await discovery in sub-tropical areas, the numbers of Liriomyzd and PhytoTnyzd species from northern, temperate areas will also increase. The six main genera, Phytomyzd, Melanflgrornyz(x) Liriomyza, Agromyzu, Cerodontha, and Ophiunyia, together account for 78'A

of known species and the remaining 22'./. are divided among 24 further genera, no less than seven of r.vhich are monotvpic. It is neverthelesi probable thit at least the genera Phytomyzu, Melanagromyza, Liriomyza) and Agromyza rvill in the future be split into a number of smaller, more strictly monoph)rletic genera. It has- already become appa-rent that the group of diminutivb epiderrial miners included in Melanugromyzd, rvhich are limited to the Old lVorld tropics, southern Japan and northern Australia, certainly deserve separate generic status. The Palaearctic Region includes no less tharr 50'l of r,vorld species. If the Holarctic Region is considered as a whole, r,vith 1131 species (deducting the 72 Holarctic spdcies from the totals of the Palaearctic and Nearctic re"sions in Table II) the proportion rises to 69\. At the opposite extreme the Aistralian Region has on^ly 41. Australia also has the highest proportion of overlapping sPecies, 311, maiily accounted for by the subsiantial-inliux in relatively r"i"trl times of Oriental species from the Ndrth. The high proporrion of ove'rlapping species in_the Nearitic Region can be explained not ;ly by the species in com-oi with the Palaearctic Region but also bv ihe numerous rp..i.s which have extended their range northwards from the Neotropical Region'to the south. It is certain that the.2l/" overlap in_ the Ne_otropical Region, a-imost enrirely accounted for by sp-ecies in common with the Nearctic Region, will appreciably diminish in view of the- numerous species certainly awaitiirg discovery^ throughout the region. . Although the lirge genera occur virtua'ily throughout the"world, the dlstribu- tion rs v€ry-uneven. Some points of significance in this distribution are briefly discussed below.

Agrornyza _._Approximately two-thirds of the genus occurs in the Holarctic Region. It is unlikely that this-proportion will su6stantially change with further"collecting. The .genus has jusf reached Australia (one species, A. testacea Spencer, 1963i) and is poorly in the Neotropical species, -represented Region (six one certainly introduced (cf. Spencer 1963c, p. Z9+)).

lapanagromyza ...This.genus.was erected for a small group of species in Japan. Subsequently additional species were found in N{icronesia-, Nerv Guinea, Indonesia, and else- where in S. Asia, with one species in Australia and one, l. salicif olii collin (cf. Hendel L931-36, p. ta8), ocCurring across cenrral Asia to rhe Mediterranean; a ::."19 group of species occurs in the Neorropical Region, including sourhern Florida (Spencer 1963c, p. 300; 1966d, p.2), with the ringe of two sfecies now

These are in the main sub- tropical to tropical species and it is not clear how and when continuity of distribu- tion existed between the tr.vo present-day centres of the genus. It is generally accepted that the last time lvarm-adapted could cross Beringia was early Eocene (Ross 1956, p. 172). In view of the apparently close relationship of a number of the Oriental and Neotroprcal lupnttagroznyzd species it seems scarcely plausible that the common ancestor of the two now disjunct groups rvas of Eocene age, although the wide distribution of the species in both regions indicates that they are not of very recent origin. The presence of only a single species in Australia, I. encalypti Sp. (Spencer 1963d) suggests that the area of origin was not the adjacent Oriental Region to the north but rather somewhere in the Neo- tropical Region. If the reverse had occurred one rvould expect more species in Australia and fewer in South America. The possibilitv cannot be excluded that sometime in middle or late Tertiary the genui successfully crossed the Pacific to the present centre of distribution in the Iidonesia - New Guinea area. However, it seems more probable that in the past the genus was Iess warm-adapted than now and crossed from North America to Asia via the Bering land bridge during one of the warmer periods of the Miocene or Pliocene.

Melanagromyza This is the second largest world genus r.vith 260 species. It is the dominant genus in the Old lVorld tropics and may prove to occupy the same relative position in the Nerv World tropics but insuflcient material has as yet been examined to establish this for certain. While there is a small overlap in species between the Ethiopian and Oriental regions indicating some recent interchange, there is none betrveen these two regions and the Neotropical Region, suggesting a relatively early, at least late Tertiary, movement either from Asia into South America or posiinty in the reverse direction. There are no Holarctic species in this genus. M. angelicae (Frost) described from the United States has been recorded in Western Europe but the European population has recently been found to represent a distinct species (Spencer, in press). The Nearctic and Palaearcric regions each have onlv ll"/" of the world total. The proportion of species in this fenus in the Holarctic Region. representing only 221, is strikingly at variance with the 691 for the entire family. The figure of 22"/. .riIl certainly be further reduced in future, as far more new species in this genus will be discovered in the Neotropical, Ethiopian, and Oriental regions than in the Holarctic Region. It is tempting to deduce from these figures that this genus had its origin either in the Old World Tropics or in Central or South America. Too little material has been studied from these areas to orovide an\r real evidence as to which is the more probable centre of origin.

Ophimnyia Of the world total of 106 species, 64, or 60f , are found in the Holarctic Region, divided almost equally betu'een the Nearctic and Palaearctic regions. There has been intensive collecting of this genus in Europe but probably as many new species await discovery in the Nearcric Region, in particular in the United States, as in the Neotropical, Ethiopian, and Oriental regions. The predominance of the genus in the northern hemisphere is therefore not likely to be radically altered by furure collecting.

Although the genus has just reached Australia (7 species),.it is scarcely l-..g.i in the entir; Orie;tal-Pacific Region (9 species); on the other hand 24 species are known in the Ethiopian Region.

Hexowyza This small genus occurs primarily in the Holarctic Region, where seven out of the eight woild species are-found. A single species, H. gymngy.oritsora (Sp.), occurs ii South Africa, forming twig-galls exactly as in the Holarctic species (cf. Spencer 1966b, p. 39).

Phytobia At present, 47 species are known in this genus which is found throughout the woild except Australia, with approximately equal representation in the Palaearctic, Neirctic, and Oriental regions. More species can certainly be expected in the Neotropical Region and I have lecently seen one undescribed species from Peru. There are no Holarctic species and in fact no true overlap between any regions; P. xanthophora (Schiner) is essentially Neotropical but has also been recorded in New Mexico (Spencer 1963c, p. 333).

Cerodontha With the recent extension of the concept of Cerodontha s. str. to embrace also the sub-genera Dizygomyza, Icteroznyza, and Poemyza placed by Frick (1959) inPhytobia,Cerodonthu s.Lat. is now one of the largest genera with 133 species, represerated in all regions. The genus appears to be dominant in the Holarctic Region with 96 species, or 701 of the world total, although further species certainly await discovery in the southern hemisphere (I have seen an undescribed species mining Csrex at Caracas, Venezuela). There is a significantly higher proportion of Holarctic species in this genus, 401, than in any of the other larger genera (see pp. 2l-22).

Colycomyza The dominance of this genus in the Neotropical and Nearctic regions is striking, where 39 of the 40 world species are found. The only species known to occur exclusively outside these regions is C. gigantissirna Spencer, 1959 from the Congo and South Africa. Two are of wide distribution, C. humeralis being one of the few truly cosmopolitan species and C. artemisiae occurring not only in Canada and Colombia but also in Europe and China (see p. 146). The present distribution suggests that this genus had its origin in the New World, probably in Central or South America, with only very limited dispersal across the Bering bridge to Asia and beyond.

Liriomyza With 231 species this is the third largest genus. Although it is represented in all regions, it is essentially a temperate genus with noticeably few species in the Ethiopian and Oriental regions. The numbers in these regions will not increase significantly but it seems likely that many further species can be expected from the Neotropical Region. At the present time the Holarctic Region accounts for 80/" of species.

Phytoliriomyza This is another small genus of 11 species, also rePres€nted throughout the world, and it is clearly clJsely related to Lenntrimyza. Certain species in this genus have the halreres partiaily darkened. The type of the..genus, P. arctica, t., unusually wide climatic tolerance and is se*icosm_opolitan (see p.202), occurring". from'Greenland to Brazil and from the Canary Islands to Formosa.

Paraphytomyza This genus has 47 species, limited to the Holarctic Region; of these only six occur in the Nearctii Region. A relatively recent origin in the Palaearctic Region seems probable.

Psendottapomyza The main centres for this genus are the Ethiopian and Oriental regions, rvhere 26 of the 27 known specieJoccur (Spencer 7965e,1966f). There afe two distinct groups, one feeding'on Gramineae and the other on Acanthaceae' There is one liolaritic species. F. otrr, and one endemic to North America, P' lactei- pennis. one species, P. spicata Malloch, occurs widely from the Ethiopian Region to Australia as far south as Sydney.

Napomyza The 38 species of this genus are largely confined to the HolarcticRegion but 4 species oc.or in Africa, iin South Africa, and 1, N. strana Sp., in Tanganyika ar an altitude of 2500 m (cf. Spencer 1965e, p.271). There is only a single Holarctic species, N. lateralis.

even in the case of mammals where there is a substantial fossil record Simpson frequently expresses doubt about the exact dates and above all the directions of migrations. Fossil records of insects are inevitably fragmentary and the assurance and orecision with which some workers chart the times and directions of move- menf of families throughout the Tertiary seems somewhat adventurous. With regard to the Agromyzidae it is reasonably certain that the family was present in the Arcto-Tertiarv forest which extended during the Eocene in an unbroken belt from Greenhnh throush Alaska to Eastern SiSeria. Remnants of this temperate forest now exist more-than 1000 miles to the south in the United States and even today show an unmistakable resemblance to the forests of NE. Asia. Many modern plant genera familiar as hosts of the Agromyzidae, such as Acer, Alnus, Betula, Carex, Cornus, Populus, Quercus, Salix, and Ulmus, have been confirmed in the Arcto-Tertiary forests of North America (Chaney 1947)' The continuity of distribution of these and doubtless numerous other hosts between North America, NE. Asia, and northern Europe thus made possible migrations of Agromyzidae in both directions, accounting for the overall resemblance between the Palaearctic and Nearctic species aPParent today, with very'The few genera not common to the two regions. danadian Agromyzidae can be coiveniently divided into four distinct grouPs: 1. Species introduced in modern times by human agency, 2. True Holarctic species which have moved into Canada from Asia via Beringia or in the opposite direction at different periods between the Pleistocene and late Pliocene or in a few cases possibly even earlier. 3. Species which can clearly be associated with related species in the Palaearctic Region but the populations have been isolated for suffici6ntly long for speciation to have taken pla-e. Interchanges of the ancestors of present-day species in this group could have taken place earlier in the Tertiary. 4. Endemic species, some certainly of early origin.

The four groups of Canadian species can now be discussed in greater detail.

Group 1- Introductions from Europe Among introduced species the most obvious is Phytomyza ilicis feeding on holly, itself introduced into the Vancouver area. Phytomyzn nepetde was found commonly in the Ottaw a area, wherever its introduced food-plant, Nepeta cdtarid, occurred. Phytomyza plantaginis was common at Ottawa on Plantago maior, which is also introduced. Trilobomyza fl.aaifrons, which is particularly common on cultivated Dianthus in Europe. has been found in the Ottawa area on Dianthus and also at Pelee, on Saponoiia officirtalis, another introduction from Europe. Paraphytornyza populicola apparently appeared on Populus in the Ottawa area in large numbers for the first time in 1956. Several species in the Maritimes are evi-dently introductions. Cerodontha flauocingulara has been recorded only in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, Phytomyza rufipes only in New Brunswick and Newfoundland, and Phytomyza varipes only in Nova Scotia. Phytomyza ranwtculi is apparently common in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland where it has doubtless been introduced. However, it is also present in Alberta and it seems probable that this represents a genuine Holarctic population. Lindroth (1957, p. 125) summarises the species in common between Europe and North America in 34 groups of animals, including 20 families of insects, and indicates that the average percentage of introduced species is between 41 and 46%. He has adduced much fascinating evidence of introductions into North -but America particularly among Coleoptera, the disproportionate attention given to this aspect of the problem tends to obscure the basic source of common species, which is without question the Bering land bridge. Lindroth's average figure of 4l-46% introductions is substantially above the figure of 201 obtaining in the Agromyzidae but this average figure is somewhat meaningless, with the percentage of introductions for differing groups ranging from nil to 100/.. Of far greater significance is the very small percentage introductions represent of the Nearctic species as a whole, which in the case of the Agromvzidae is 4"1.

Groztp 2 -True Holarctic Species The Holarctic species represent 24/. of the Canadian total; however, they should more properly be considered as a proportion of the whole Holarctic Region and the percentage then drops to 7"/". Table IV shows for the six main genera the percentage of Holarctic species both of the Canadian total and also of the Holarctic total. The higher proportion of Holarctic species in the genus Cerodontha appears to be significant. This genus feeds predominantly on Gramineae and Cyperaceae,

in fact the plants most likely to be present in the impoverished flora of the Bering bridge. An analysis of the host-plants of Holarctic species is equally revealing. In this case the 59 true Holarctic species are considered, excluding the 13 species treated as introductions. The families with more than one species are shown in Table V. The following families provide the hosts for a single species: Balsaminaceae (Impatiens), Chenbpodiaceae (Amaranthus, Chenopodium), Cornaceae (Cornus), C.ruciferae (many genera), Labiatae (many genera), Polypodiaceae (Pteridium), Rubiaceae (Galiirm), Scrophulariaceae (Pediculuri.s),Umbelliferae (Heracleum).. The host of two speciei (Amauromyza karli and Lemurimyza dorsata) is unknown. The fisures above strikinglv confirm the evidence from the genus Cerodonthd, that is, that" feeders otr gtrtr"{ sedges, and rushes have been abl6 to cross Beringia in larger numbers in mo-re recent times than species whose hosts would be-expected much the to bJ sparsely-Hori'ever, represented on the land bridge existing through of Pleistocene. the picture given by-Flint (1947, p.529) of the land connection between Alaska Siber-i" as "a broad plain covered by long, thick grass" evidently oversimplifies"nd the floristic assemblage which must in fact have existed. It seems clear that most, if not all, the host-plants of the Holarctic Agro- myzidae must have been established on the Bering land bridge, either during .the wirmer interglacials or possibly during the late Tertiary. It is therefore possible to reconst.ruct the balanied but doubtless sparse flola existing in Beringia at one or

One._other largely cosmopolita.,,p.di.r, ialycotnyza httmeralis, falls--into a simil-ar- ca-tegory' Amauiomyza klarli is an uncommon species recorded from isolated localities in Europe. it therefore seemed diflculf to explain'of rhe single Canadian sPecimen from' Ottawa. Only subsequently a series specimens from Mongolia was examined, suggesring conriniity of Holarctic disfribution. Cerodontha dorsalis is a well-kno#"t, *ii.tptead species in the United States and Canada, with records also from Guaiemala,'Puerto Rico, and Brazil. Many specimens were found among the material from Mongolia recently studied confirming that this species is also" Holarctic. In this .r."-it seems clear that the migration has taken place from East to West. In Alaska there is a large population of a species described by Hendel (193l-36, p. 48) from Kamchatlia as Dizygowyza (: Cerodonthd) pygmella. There are bnly minor difierences in venation between pygmella and- European rp"'.i.r, pygrudect (Mg.). Specimens from a number of localities"-iorn-otr in Eastirn Canada are either identical to py g?ndea or intermediate between pygm6ed and pygmella. The male genitalia in all cases are identical. It is believed that "py gmella" merely rePresents a northern form of py gmaed; European py gTnaea may well have been intioduced into Eastern Canada, pro_ducing the iomewhat variabie population now recorded there (Ottawa, Labrador, Chimo). Calycomyza artemiside is known in Canada from a single specimen from Ottawa. It is a common species in Western Europe and I have s€en a specimen from China (leg. Rohdendorf);it has also been reared from ?Eupatorium and Gtmphalium at 81OO ft near Bogot6 in the Andes (Spencer 1963c, p. 139). The-1e specimens are all indistinquishable otr external characters and the male genitalia are gener:ally similar but-show slight differences in the asymmetry of the disti- phalius. This appears to be a case of incipient speciation in populations_ now isolated. The specimens from Bogoti clearly rePlesent a relict _population seoarared^ from the main Nearctic stock at least since the end of the Pleistocene. Phytomyzd syvzgenesiae is one of the commonest species in Western Europe and is apparently common in the western United States (Griffiths 1967, p. 9). It has been found but only in isolated examples in Alberta and appears to be entirelv absent from Eastern Canada. There seems little doubt that it has moved into the western part of the Nearctic Resion via Alaska but it has failed to establish the dominant position there whichlc occupies in Europe.

Close Relutiaes in the Palaearctic Region Group 3 - Species t;;ith A large group of species fall into this category in which there are very closely related, if not actual sister-species, Present on the one hand in Canada and on the other in the Palaearctic Resion. Some of the obvious cases are as follows:

It will be seen that the genus providing most of these obvious sister-species is Phytomyza. The large number of closely-related species in this, the largest genus in the family, indicates that it is still in the process of full development. Many of the species are clearly of recent origin and it is possible that a number of these sister-ipecies have speiiated during th-e Pleistocene-, It is interesting to find that four Canadian species, Agromyza aocker.othi, Liriomyza philadelphivora, Phytomyza aralivora, and P. asterophagd, have sister- species in Japan. It is equally interesting to record that there is n_ot one species with a distri-bution limited to Japan and the Nearctic Region. There has thus been no recent interchange between Japan and North America but there clearly has been an interchange al a somewhat iarlier date, r'vhich has provided sufficient time for speciation to take place in the tr,vo areas. In fact, geological evidence indicates that the last time Japan rvas connected to the mainland of China was early in the Pleistocene and this was presumablv rvhen the ancestors of these four species- had a continuous distribution betrvein Japan and North America. Three further pairs of sister-species are of lnterest. Phytomyza mittuscula is widespread in Europe and also occurs in Japan.

Cerodontha frattkensis, which is only known in Alberta and British Columbia, is the sister-species of C. ftaaocingulaia, which is comrnon in western Europe but present only in Eastern Canada as an introduction.

Group 4 - Endernic Spe cies The great majority of Canadian species are endemic to the Nearctic Region' Most do not appear to be obviously of great age and can readily be included in genera which bccur widely in the Palaearctic Region or even throughout the world. A few species nevertheless appear to merit further discussion' Cerodontha (Icterotnyza) fuscifioni is known from a single localitv in Quebec, 30 miles north of-Otiawa. Its distinctive genitalia (nig.-Zle) and dark coloration suggest that its nealest relative is C. fl.oresensls Spencer (1961a, P' 841 described frJri Flores, Indonesia, and subsequently recorded on Negros and Mindanao in the Philippines (Spencer 19659, pl 8).'Such a disiunct dislribution of sister-species is eniirely plausible. The sub-genus lcterowyza is small but occurs thrbughout the Holarctic Region and has been recorded at widely separated localities in ihe Oriental Resion and also in Australia and Africa. Icteromyza pitiseta Becker has a particulirlv wide distribution from the Cape Verde Islands, across Africa to the Seychelles,'Fofmosa, and Micronesia (Spencer 1961a, P..85). It is therefore certain lhat this is an old grouP. However, it is not possible to establish when the intelchange of the incestor of fuscifrons and fl.ores.ens.is between the northern and southern hemispheles took place but presumably in mid- or late Tertiarv from some centre in Eastern Asia. Calycomyza gigantea appears to be the closest relative of C. gigantissima, the single species of this genus (ipart from the cosmopolitan C. hurn:eralis)_occurring in ihe iithiopian Reglon, rvhich has been recorded from the Belgian Cong.o and South Africr (Spenier 1963e, p. 113). These are the only two.species in the genus having th-e aedeagus strongly divided (Fig.251), a primitive chalacter 6elonging to"the ground--plan of ih6 Agromyzidae, and they are perhaps signifi- cantly the trvo largest species in the genus. Trilobomyzn plruritit is a leaf-miner on Catalpd spp., an old genus, with fossil leaves known from the Eocene; the Bignoniaceae are generally considered by botanists to have evolved in the late Creiaceous. Frick (1953,P. 71) with some hesitation placed pleuralis in Trilobornyza. Unfortunately no males are available to clarify im .ortict generic position and I therefore follow Frick now, in order its true to avoid makins a cli"nse which mav'It have to be revised further when generic position" can be istablished. is certainly an isolated, aberrant species, 'probablv of early origin in association with its food-planr. Liriomyzo rsnunitiloides is the onlv species in this genus in the world known as a leaf-miner on Ranunculaceae. Agiomyza ambrosivora is only the third Agrotnyz,:t species in the world feeding on Compositae (also A. apf elbecfri _Strobl oi Cynara aid Cirsium; and A. rufipes L[.g. on Artemisia). Liriomyza smilacinae is one of very fer'v Liriovtyza species feeding on Liliaceae.

Althou_gh a substantial and representative sample bf the Canadian Agiomyzidae is now known, knowledge of the true distribution of mosr if not all ipeciel is inevitably incomplete and must necessarily remain so for an indefinite period ahead. Given this situation_, anl lengthy discussion of the distribution of individual species as- known tod.ay is poi"ntless and can only prove misleading and, as our- knowledge. grows, in all the association of a f-ey frobability increasing$ inaccurate. Neriertheless 9p9ci^es is briefly -ith fauiai zones does emerge from the Present study and discussed"ttrblished below.

Carolinian Zone Species of essentially southern distribution are Agromyza ambrosivord, Calyc'omyza iponmeae, and Parapbytowyztt sp. {Pelee), all only known from Pelee. C. ipomaeae, a Neotropical species, is blearly at the northern limit of its range in the Lake Eiie area, with its host-plant, Ipomoea, only known in Canada froir Pelee and Niagara. Calycotnyza althaeae occurs at Toronto b_ut apparently does not reach Ottiwa. It is not uncommon on Long Island, N.Y. Liriomyza sp. (Cdmpenula), found at Pelee, may also Prove to be an essentially southern sPecres.

Alle ghenian-Ac adian Zone Liriomyza sorosis is palticularly common in Florida and it was unexpected to find it at Oirawa. A. virifrons is another southern species, which is abundant at Pelee buc this has successfully followed its host-plant, Celtis, as far north as Montreal. Both are doubtless at rhe northern limit of their range at these two localities. lapanagromyza viridula, feeding on Quercus, is another typical re_Presentativ€ of this-zone. It occurs widely in the south-east areas of the United States and is now recorded for the first time in Ontario and Nova Scotia. The maritime area contains a number of the introduced species from Europe, srrch as Cerodontha flavocingulata and Phytomyza ruf'pes' Species from the Rocky Mountains, such as Melanagromyzd -setifrons, Phytomyza penstemonis, and P. subtenella, may be found to be largely limited to this zone. Sbme have considerable extensions of th.it range to the-north, such as Pbytomyza illustris, known from Blairmore, Alta' (4000 ft), Atlin, B.C. (2300 ft)' and also the Yukon. Others with a somewhat similar distribution Pattern are Phytomyza delphinivora known from Edmonton and the Yukon, and Phytomyza subtilis known from Edmonton and Unalakleet, Alaska. A number of Phytomyza species recorded in Alaska, such as P. gelida, P' inf elix, and P. misella, may have a typical coastal zone distribution substantially farther to the south. Iielanagromiia alaskae, at Present known only from Anchorage, Alaska, may have a similar range. Arctic Zone Five species may be mentioned r.vith a typically arctic distfibution, namely Cerodontha tbulensi's, Phytomyza erigerontophaga, P. paraicella, P. puccittelliae, and P. vibeana. P. e'rigerontophdgct and P. paraicelh extend throughout the Arctic from Alaska easts'ards btt Cerodontha tbttlensis and P. puccinelliae aPPear to be limited to the eastern Hish Arctic and NW. Greenland. The distribution of the rwo larter species could-be conveniently explained by the arctic refugium which is believed to have existed in this area.

The most serious pest of i'll is probably Milanogromyzt phaseoli (Tryon) which feeds in the stems of young beans and complete destruction of the plant can result. This is an exclusively tropical species occurring from Africa throughout southern Asia to northern Australia and is present on many Pacific islands. Cultivated plants in Caiifornia and Florida are attacked by a number of agromyzid pests, mainlv Liriomyzu species, and serious damage.is caused. Grain ciops can ilso be severely affected by Agromyza species, widespread damage recently being caused to barley in southern Germany (Geigenmiiller 1966). Phytobiispecies feed as internal borers in young twigs of various trees. The species are large and the larvae grow up to 2 cm or more in length and make extensive channels in the young growing wood. This damage can aPPreciably reduce the value of timber for commercial use. Wherever is cultivated in the United States and Europe, the stem- mining species Ophiomyia siruplex is found. Young plants especially can be severely weakened by the mining activity of the larvae. This species has been recorded at several localities in Ontario and Quebec. Although Agromyzidae, as far T I aware, have not so far been known to cause senous economic damage in Canada,"T the possibility of a mass outbreak of one or other species, as suddenly occurred on barley in Germany, cannot be excluded. Four main groups of plants could possibly suffer damage in Canada, namely: 1. Cereals (Agromyza species). 2. Vegetable crops, such as asparagus, beans, cabbage, tomatoes (Ophiomyia simplex, Liriomyza brassicae, Liriomyza trif olii). 3. Horticultural plants (Phytomyza ilicis on holly, Phytomyzd aconiti on Delphinium, Trilo bomy za fl.avifrons on Dianthus). 4. Trees (Phytobia species).

KEY TO GENERA OF CANADIAN AGROMYZIDAE No attempt has been made in this paper to carry out any major generic revision; the only generic svnonymv established is of Cephalornyza wlth Amauromyzd. A task for the future, however, is not only to examine critically on a world basis the larger genera in borh sub-families to produce a generic re-arrangement on a more strictly monophyletic basis but, conversely, to assess whethef there is justification for retaining some of the smaller genera of the . It appears that Trilobomyza might correctly be synonymized with Amaurovnyza and it has now become clear that the genera Phytoliriomyza and Lermtrimyzd are very closely related and possibly together represent a single natural genus. The generic position of the species described as Agromyza pleuralis Malloch requires further clarification. It was transferred to Trilobomyza by Frick (1953, p. 71); although it now seems unlikely that it is correctly placed here, I have refriined from making a change at this time since a further change might well prove necessary when males can be examined and its correct generic -position finally established. The key given below represents a further development of that originally produced by Hendel (1931-36, p. 16), modified by Frick (1952, p. 365) and Spencer (1966b, p. 5).

This is clearly one of the commonest qrass-feeders in Canada and has in the past probably been confused with A. nigri{es Mg., which is, however, easily recognisable by its darker squamal fringe. Frick (1959, p.356) records nigripes as having a white squamal fringe and it seems probable that the species he had before him was in fact ulbipennis; he also synonymises A. dubitata Malloch (1913a, p. 311) with nigripes. Malloch includes specimens from Ottawa and Montreal as paratvpes and it seems reasonably certain that A. dubitata is synony- mous with albipennis rather than with nigripes. Merenrer Exal,rrNeo.

This species closelv resembles A. tacita but is distinzuishable bv the entirely black antennae. The distinctive characters are the publscent third antennal segment, shining black mesonotum, and rvhite squamal fiinge. One male from Manitoba, Ninette, 28 Julv 19tS (J.G.C.), is distinctly larger with wing length of 3 mm, the squamal fringe is darker and the 2 bristles on the surstyli (Fig, Zt) are more approximate and longer; this possibly represents a distinct species but the description should wait until additional material becomes available.

color of the squamal fringe is slightly variable, from ochrous to more obviously brou'n. The species is therefore included in the key in both couplets 23 and 27. The aedeagts of A. hockingi closely resembles that of A. facilis but the surstyli are consistently different and the squamal fringe is distinctly darker'. The strong bristles on the surswli are somewhat variable but there is always one at both the upper and lower corners; in the somewhat similar A. bispinata there are 2 at the upper corner, none at the lower. The seriii on which the diagnosis of this species was first made was caught while enjoying the hospitality of Dr. and Mrs. Hocking at thefu cabin at Wabamun Lake and I have great pleasure in dedicating the species to them.

Hendel (1931-36, p. 137) redescribed this species and Griffiths (1963) has recently discussed it in detail in his partial revision of the grass-feeding Agromyza species. Frick (1957, p. 199) synonymised A. dubitata N{alloch with nigripes; however in his (1959, p. 353) key the squamal fringe of nigripes is stated to be white. It seems reasonably certain that the species frequently recorded in the United States as nigripes in fact represents albipennis Mg. (cf. p. 32). It is somewhat surprising that the only confirmed specimens from Canada are the four I collected in Alberta. The species is possibly limited to the West; it is certainly not present among the hundreds of specimens in this group I have examined from Ontario. N4arnnrar ExenrrNno.

Examination of the types confirms that one is largely desffoyed but the male lectotype is in perfect condition. The aedeagus is entirely distinc- tive, as illustrated, and the short, broad distiphallus will permit immediare identification of this species. A. pmaicornls belongs to a closely-related group of grass-feeders. The name has been widelv used in the literature and has in particular been associated with a leaf-miner ontorr, (Zeamays). The identity of the corn leaf-miner now remains to be established and all earlier references to pdraicorms must be treated with reserve. They may or may not refer to the true paruicornis. Spencer (1966d, p. 1) discussed as parvicornis a species feeding on Echinochloa walteri in Florida. This was a misidentification and represents a new species described as proximd on p. 52.

Numerous mines of this species, mostly empty but some still containing latvae, were found on virtually every Cehis tree at the southern end of the Pelee National Park in mid-July 1967. A. aarifrons is closely related to A. trebinjensis Strobl feeding on C. australis L. in Europe. MerBnrer, Exeurrno.

A. isolatu Malloch (l9l3a, p. 306) is clearly in this same group and close to A. aockerothi bat was described from a sinsle female in California. Until males are available from the type locality permirlng clarification of the identity of A. isolata, it seems preferable not to attempt to associate any Canadian specimens with this name. The mid-tibial bristle and the male senitalia are the essential characters for the recognition of this species. Agrornyza sp, Anurr.

Of the 17 species represented in Canada, 14 are described below as new. This is primarily a southern genus and no species penetrate into the Arctic. M. aluskae sp. n. described from Anchoraqe is at the northern limit of the distribution of the genus. -Melattugrom,yza species are predominantly stem-borers and the four Canadian sp. n., species whoie life-history is knbwn, Met. sp. (Steyskal), wartini _tma.tri- iarioides sp. n., and ,tiretis (Loew), all feed in this way. In the southern United States and th" Neotropical Region there is a well-developed group of seed-feeders (Spencer 1966d,p.7f Theselre generally smaller but other-wise morphologically identical to the stem-borers. The European species were lecently revised by Spencer- (1966b). Most species are host-specific. Many species feed on hosts in_ the- larger families such as Compositae ind Umbelliferae but a wide range of other families is also attacked. Four Ophiomyin and two Hexoznyza species which on external characters could be misiaken ior Melanagromyzaspecieiare included in the key given below.

Tvprs. Holotype d , Quebec, Hull, 24 May 1923 (C.H.C.); paratype: 1 6 , Alberta, Onefour, 13 June 1956, "swept from wild mustard" (O.P.). Holotype, No. 10361, in CNC, paratype in author's collection. DIacNosts. The variation in the two type specimens is surprising and unusual; the identical and distinctive genitalia of the specimens confirms beyond doubt that they represent the same species. The broad jowls combined with the black squamal fringe make the species readily recognisable. Whether the typical form is that from Alberta with the conspicuously projecting frons and unusually broad jorvls or that from Quebec with the more normal head shape can only be decided as more material becomes available. A female from Onefour,2 June 1956 (O.P.), is only tentatively referred to this species. It is substantially larger with rving length of 3.2 mm, it lacks the shining ocellar triangle and orbits and the abdomen is more greenish. Additional material is required before the exact status of this specimen can be decided.

Melanagrornyza inornatd sp. n. (Fig. 88) Anurr. Generally resembling M. miranda Gf. p.72), r.vith following points of dif- ference: lunule los'er than semicircle, broader; orbital setulae all proclinate (Fig. 88), cheeks not shining; mesonotum mat black, even when viewed from behind, abdomen blackish coppery; u'ing length 1.1-3.5 mm in female, last section of m, short, % length of penultimate.

The broadly projecting orbits make this a distinctive species and among those with a rvhite squamal fringe it can only be compared with M. miranda. It is immediately recognisable by the entirely proclinate orbital setulae.

The characteristic features of M. uiretts are the exceptionally broad orbits bearing numerous rows of setulae. u ith those above conspicuously proclinate. In M. splettdida the orbits are also broader than average and the general arrangement of the orbital setulae is as in virens but they are noticeably sparser and less dis- tinctly proclinate above and in the inner rows. Shewell (1953, p.465), after examination of Loew's two type specimens, commented as follows on the orbits: "orbital hairs numerous, mostly proclinate but the outermost rolv reclinate." This arrangement also applies exactly to M. splendida and it was unfortunate that the

first specimens in this group which I examined were splendidn. It was this fact which led to my misidentifying splendidd as pirens and establishing the synonymy of the rwo. M. splettdida Frick is therefore now formally resurrected' Specimens from Jamaica (Sp.n..t 7963c,p.323) and from Florida, reared from stems of Flat;eria linearis, agiee exactly rvith a paratyPe of splendida from Hawaii. I have recently also seen ipecimens from Santa Paula, Calif., reated from Heliantbzs stems. M. hiterothecae Spencer (1966d, p. 9) was described primarily on the basis of the very distinctiveiurstyli (1966d, fig. 31), bearing three conspicuous spines at the end. The additional material I have now been able to examine from Canada sarisfies me that the long spines on the surstyli are a characteristic feature of the ffue AireTts. Three, hoivener, is not a specific number as I incorrectly assumed; there mav be up to six,',vith some possiblv partially fused. A further illustration of the suistyli ii given in Fig. 1 15, w-hich shows the lower section of the epandrium in side view. dfurther c6nsistent character of airens is the large, curving spine at the lower, outel corner of the epandrium. I have confirmed that this is present in all specimens I have been able to examine, though it is smaller in those from Florida than in Canadian specimens. M.',u-iretts has been retorded in North America from a rvide range of hosts (X[alloch 1913a,p.321). N,Iost of these records may refer to splendida, which is knou'n as a polfphagous species in Hawaii. I suspect that tplendida is a more southern tp.ii"t and-does ttot o..ot in Canada. A further species from Alaska, which can only be positivelv separated from splendida and aireus by the male genitalia, is described earlier in this Paper as alaskae sp. n. N{erEnrar, Exer.tIN l;o.

Three characteristic features of this gelrus are the strong vibrissal fasciculus in the male, the pronounced keel separatinf the base of the anlennae and the black halteres. Althoua'h recent studies have shown that none of these characters is constant in all sfecies throughout the world, the characteristic male genitalia reliably indicate generic afiliations in doubtful cases (cf. pulicaria Mg., puli- carioides Sehgal). Trventy-six species are now recorded in Canada, of which 18 are described as new and 5 are Holarctic. The host-plant is known for only 6 species.

This is a common species, which no doubt occurs throughout Canada. It belongs to a group in whiih the adults are not readily distinguishable; by Spencer Five five such species ii Eurofe u'ire difierentiated -(1961a,_p.780). species *'hi.h can be placed in this grouP are now recorded in Canada, namely iirrgr*rrrr',ris, shiloenis, T;sabatnuneriis, pVirntt, and octaaa. If there is no associa- tion r,vith the host-plant, a certain identification will normally only be possible after examination oi the male genitalia. Frost (1924,p.41) briefl"y discusses this species, as Agrormyza urttipilpis Zett., the food-plant being recorded as Solidago, and further discusses' as vaf. texdntr X4alloch,'a form reitricted to Aster spp. u'ith a different arrangement of frass in the leaf-mine. Nlalloch (1913a, p. lil) described A. texuna from a male reared f rom Roripa sp. (Cruciferae) in Texas. This species is certainly_in_ n_! .rval associated r.vith O. maltrd) rvhich feeds indiscriminatelV on Aster and Solidago' The reference by Frost to a variety of tmaura (as curaipalpis), in which the puparium also remains in the mine but '"vith "little or no visible frass" does suggest' ho*.u.r, that there is possibly a second species occurring on these hosts.

It generally resembles P. setosa feeding in Acer but the frons is normally more reddish, it is normally smaller and can best be recognised by the distinctive arrangement of the orbital bristles, with only the upper one being reclinate and the others incurved. The genitalia of the two species are also remarkably similar but in anrcldn- chieris the distiphallus is distinctly longer. Merrnrer, Exel.rrNoo.

The significant characters of this species are the entirely yellowish orange coloration of frons, antennae, and palps and the conspicuously high epistoma. Greene (i914), assisted by l{alloch, identified the species as pruinosa Coquillett, stating "The rvriter's specimens agree perfectly with the type (of pruinosa), except that they are very slightlv larger." Mr. G. Stevskal has kindly compared Greene's series rvith the tvpe of pruinost and writes (private communication): "It is not much more than half the size of the 'cambium miner of river birch' and is a quite different thing." The sketches of the genitalia of pninosa prepared bv tr/tr.'steyskal show theledeagus having similar paired rubules but these appear to lack the distinctive uprvard bend adjoining the mesophallus as in beniliaord and there are other minor post- abdominal differences. Species in this genus can vary in size considerably (as in setosa and amelan- chieris) but on the available evidence it seems desirable to treat rhe species from birch as distinct from prutinosa.

From indecora it is readily distinguishable by the deeper jowls, which in the holotype and one paratyPe I have eramined are between ,6 and 1/ro the eye height. The male genitilia of conf essa and indecord are generally similar, confirming their close relaiionship, b'st in inclecora the distiphalius is significantly larger and different in detail. The entire type series of pruni appears to be lost. Mailoch (1918b) when describing indec6ia, stressed as the m;in character distinguishing the two species the shortEr last section of vein m"+ which in no specimen was mote than 71/z times the lensth of the penultimate section. No reference was made in either pruni or inddcora to tha orbits being shining or proiecting. It seems cerrain iherefore that confessa does not represent a riisidentification- of pruni.

This is the largest known North American species, although there is some overlapping between the smallest setosd and the largest amelanchieris. There are normally four strong orbital bristles, with the upper two reclinate. This is the best character for distinguishing setosa from amelanchieris, in which the orbital setulae are more slender, with only the upper one reclinate. The color of the frons is normally dark above, becoming paler, reddish towards the lunule but this also shows considerable variation ranging from entirely dark to largely pale, almost yellowish. In the aedeagus the distal tubules are relatively short, equal to or at most 1 7i times length of the mesophallus. This character also serves to separate setoscl from amelanchieris, in which the distiphallus is consistently twice the length of the mesophallus.

It seems clear, even from this paltial revierv of species outside Europe, that Butowornyzd cannot be retained as a valid sub-genus. The primary chalacter of the new -o.,oty*pic sub-genus Crastemyza_erected for flaaoiittgulaia Strobl is the termination of it-t. cosr-a at vein r.*,. However, this reduction is foun{ in one of mole species in the genera Agromyza, Oghiotnyia, Phytobia s.s., and Arnauromyza and iannot be accorded generic-or sub-generic significance. A further character of Crastem.yza is the. presence.of stlong bristles oi the surstyli, seen above to occur in many species of Dizygomyza'- Pre- scutellars ari variable in flavocingulata, although normally Present; the lunule, however, is relatively large and high, as in semipostica-ta.

However, in all other charactels the larva agrees with iVpi-cal Dizy gotnyzrz species.

The larger size could well be an advantage. in .with- stinding the extreme cold through ihe long winters in the north and selection in this diriction seems plausible. The larger discal cell and broader frons could logically derive from'this larger size. - The identical genitalia in all specimens examined supports either the second or third hypothesis. Horvever, without more intermediate material, both between W. Eurofe and E. Siberia and also from south to north throughout its range,. it is not possible to make a positive decision between these two possibilities. In either case there is no justifiiation for treating pygmella as dtstinct and it is therefore synonymised with py gmaea herewith. The distribution of py gmaea is significantly more northern than incisa; it is particularly common in Alaska and itl range extends there even to the tundra.

The genitalia shor,v that it is not im- mediately related to fuscifrons but appears to be closer to the relatively common Palaearctic species, I. geniculata (Fall6n). The aedeagus of geniculafa was illus- trated by Nowakowski (1962, fie. 11); the distal tubules do not bend upwards at the end of the mesophallus but onlv towards their apex and they do not divergc. The record from Palm Springs, Calif., presumably represents a relict popula- tion isolated since the end of the Pleistocene. I have previously identified specirnens from South Africa in this group as geniculatu (Spencer 1959, p. 301; 1961c, p. 339; 196+b, p. 31). Re-examination of part of this material now satisfies me that this is distinct.

Third antennal segment angulate or with a distinct spine dorsally; only 2 scutellar bristles; lunule broad, semicircular. It has hitherto been accepted that only a single species of Cerodontba s.s', clorsalis (Loerv), occurs in North America. It was considered that this was subject to a marked geographic and seasonal variation in color - the paler, mo.re yeliowish form occu-rriig predominantiy in the spring and in the east, with the dark form occurring in tf,e^summer and autumn tnd in the r,vcst. Aldrich (1918) examined some tho;sands of specimens from numerous localities collected at dif- ferent times of the year and ihis material led him to believe that only a single species was presenr. Frick (1952, p. 399) was unable to find any differences in genitalia between the pale and dark forms and (1959, p. 396) stated that "the dark i""tt..tr form came fr-om the region of cool nights and the more yeilorvish eastefn form is from the region of warm nights." Many specimeis of the dark f6rm were collected.by the author and V' K' Sehgal i,i Aib..tr, near Banff, in June 1966. Comparison of these with tl.pical pale"eastern dorsalis has shown that there is in fact a distinct and consistent dif- i.r..r.. in the aedeagus and it is now established that at Ieast trvo species.are present. The true iorsalis is clearly the prevalent species in.the east but does bccur in the west; although the pleura and scutellum are gener.ally at least-partially yellowish, entirely dark Torms trn o...r.. The almost consistentlY dark species which is dominant in the west has been described by sehgal (1968, p.64) as occidentdlis. From the material he has examined it appears that there may even be a third species present, indistinguishable from occidentalis on external charac- ters, but with small but distincltive differences in genitalia. N{ore detailed biological studies of this group are clearly required to clarify still further the exact status of these species.

Calycotnyzu, Norvakor.vski, 1962, p. 97; Spencer, 1966d, p. 16. This genus is readily recognisable by the yellor.v frons and notopleural area and black scutellum. All species have a distinctive patch of bristles on the ventral hind-corner of the epandrium (cf. Fig. 270). Frick (1956) recorded 14 species in North and Central America. Spencer (1963c) recorded 20 species in the Neotropical Region and 3 new species have since been described from Florida (Spencer 1966d). Thirteen species are now recorded for Canada, five of which are new. Differences between many of the spccies are extremely slight and many involve color, male genitalia, or larvae together v'ith feeding habit, i.e. leaf-mines. For erample, in jttcrindu (Wulp) and proruissa Frick the adults and male genitalia are not salisfactorily distinguishable but there is a distinctive difference in larvae and leaf-mine; in althaeae ip. n. and ipotnaeue Frost the adults aPPear identical but there are significant differences in both genitalia and larvae; while in humeralis (Roser) and solidaginis (Kak.) the distinctive larvae are indistinguishable but there are slight but constant differences in color in the adults and in the genitalia. Frick (1956) in his valuable revision of this group prepared a key based largely on minor color differences in the adults but these charactets are not reliable and the key is unsatisfactorv. Eramination of genitalia of a number of specimens determined bv Frick on this basis in the Canadian National Collection shows that they have been misidentified. Satisfactory identification of many species rvhich cannot be associated rvith leaf-mines or larvae rvill only be possible from a study of male genitalia. Three such spccies misidcntified by Frick are jrrcutda (Wulp), allecta (N{elander), and cynoglossi Frick and for the time being it must be assurned that these species do not occur in Canada.

This, however, is clearly not monophyletic with the type of the sub-genus Cephalo- myza, luteiceps Hendel.

On the basis of external characters Frick was entirely justified im- in transferring this species to Praspedomyza. However, the male _genitalia mediately revial its cbrrect generic position, the enlarged blade of the sperm sac and the bowl-shaped base being Particularly distinctive. The whitish^knob of the iriteres has hitherto led the species to be placed in Praspedamyza. However, the stalk of the halteres is distinctly darker and even the knob is not pure rvhite, clearly being transitional to the black halteres normally occurring in the genus. The co-*on-N.otropical sPecies, A. macu'Iosa (Mall.)' which ,lio oc..,ti in the southern U.S., has the halteres variegated, white above and black below.

Iutes Mg., and this is identical with the holotype of sluskensis. L. litea and this new species are externally virtually indistinguishable but the genitalia are entirely difierent; inlutea the distiphallus ends in two pale, relatively broad tubules. Frick (1959, p. 406) recorded L. lutea as having been reared in England from leaf-mines on the fern Asplenium rutamuraria L. This was based on a mis- identification and it is now established thfi L. lutea feeds in the seeds of Heracleum, Pastinaco, and possibly other Umbelliferae.

Frost (1924) considercd the species on Philadelphus and Plutago as representing melawpygd, and Malloch (19134) also associated the rramc rvith the species on Pluttd,qo.

I Aug. 1967 ex leaf-mine on Rsnrntcttlus sp., possibly acris,leg. 19 July 1967 (K.A.S.), in author's collection. DIecxosIs. This species is readily distinguishable from L. borealis, the only species of comparable size with the pre-scutellar area yellow and the sides of the scuqellum black, by the solid dark area of the mesonotum (divided, with rwo lateral bands in borealis). It clearly resembies L. assimilis (i\'{alloch) from Illinois. Flowever, Frick (1959, p. 401 ) has identifie d x ussinilis specimens reared by Frost from H elianthus sp. These are certainly distinct from the specimen from Ranunculus. It cannot of course be excluded that the specimens from HelianthLrs ate rvrongly identified as assimilis, which might in that case prove to be the species on llanrmcrilus. This can only be clarified when the genitalia of the male holotype of assimilis and of males from Helianthus and Ranunculus can be examined. Until such time it seems preferable to describe as new the reared specimen from Ranunculus. There is a single female in the CNC from Arvem-e, Ilan., in this group but it is impossible to decide whether it represents assimilis or ranunutloides.

(Campun,ula) (Fig. 3+8r Leaf-mines on Cdwpanula uwericatta (Fig. 3as) found at Pelee, Ont., on i6 JuJy' 1967 (K.A.S.), appear to represent an undescribed species. The larva feeds primarilv alone the midrib u'ith short lateral offshoots into the leaf-blade; there'are 3 ivell-dlveloped bulbs on each posterior spiracular process. The form of mine is exactly as in the common Palaearctic species, L. strigatn (Mg.), which is also frequently found on Carnpanula but here the ^postcrior spiracles each have an ellipse of 10-12 bulbs. Unforlunately no adults were ieared but it is hoped that future workers will succeed in establishing the identity of this species.

It is not distineuishable on external charicters from P. morio (Brischke), a leaf-miner on Aspirula and Galiwm, which is widespread in Europe or from P. flaaiantennatd Spencer, 7966e from Ilraztl. The genitalia of these sPecies' how- ever, are distinCtively different. The aedeagus of flaviantenndtd r'vas illustrated by Spencer (1966e:'figs. 13, 15); in ruorio the distiphallus is smaller, Iargely circular, and without the curved, projecting section which is characteristic pf galiiaora. The larvae of the two species are readily distinguishable: in galiiuora there are 3 relatively large bulbs on the posterior spiracles, while in ruorio there is an ellipse- of 13 minute bulbs. There is an addirional record of galiittora from Europe, a male reared by Prof. Flering from Galium rttbioides at the Botanical Gardens, Berlin, 22 llune 1953. The specimen was unfortunately destroved PIioI to being examined but the genitalia had been extracted immediately after killing and agree completely with thosc of the tvpe series. A leaf-mine on G alitnn triflora at Val d'Or, Que., 2 1 July 1967 is also referable to this species. A braconid parasite emerged from the.single puparium obtained but the distinctive spiracles immediately place the species gdliivord. ^s A male from North Carolina, Highlands, 25 Mav 1957 (J.R.V.), has genitalia closely resembling but not identicaf r'vith those of morio from Europe. The status of this population cannot be satisfactorily determined at this stage.

Gnxus Paraphytomvza Enderlein Paraphytomyza Enderlein, 1936a. Type of genus: A,qrontyza siruilis Brischke (Enderlein 1936b). Rubiomyzd Nowakowski, 1962, p. 102. Type of genus: Agroruyzd similis Brischke. The North American species in this genus have hitherto bcen placed in the genus PhytagroTnyz(r Hendel (Frick 1959, p. 415). Nos'akorvski (1962, p. 100) establisl-red that the tvpe of the genus Phyta- gromyzd, Domornyza flaaocingulnra Strobl. is synonl'mous lvith Paemyza scmidftd Hendel, treating Poemyza as a sub-gcnus of the genus CerodottthaRondani. The genus Pbyragromyzd, by virtue of the svnonvmy of the genotype, must also be accepted as svnonymous with Poeruyza. Despite this, Nowakorvski (.1962,' p. 102) proposed to retain Phytugroruyza for the small group of species mining on Salicaceae; he further proposed the neu' genus Rzllowyzd for the spccies hithertcr included in Phytagromyz,:r mining on Rubiaceae, Caprifoliaceae, and Dipsacaceae. Rnbiotnyza is clearly svnonymous with Partphytoruyza Enderlein, rvhich u,as overlooked by Norvakowski, both genera having Agrowyzd siwilis Brischke as genotYPe. Until the entire group of species described in Phytagrornyzd can be revisccl, I propose that they should all for the timc bcing be acccpted as belonging to Pdrdphytomyza, although the differences in genitalia do suggest there is some justification for giving the group of Salicaccae miners sepx,ritte gencric ranl{.

Paraphytomyza sp. ( Pelee ) As this paper goes to press I have seen a female reared from leaf-mines on Lonicera columbiana Nutt. at Polson, Montana, 17 July 1967 (S. Whitney), identical with those shown in Fig. 537, which represents an undescribed species. It somewhat resembles P. orbitalis but is significantly larger, the frons and noto- pleural area are orange-yellow and the mesonotum has conspicuous yello'il'ish areas at the hind-corners.

Small venational characters separate this genus from Phytomyza and Para- phytomyza; from the former it is also separated by having the orbital setulae reclinate. Of the 27 known world species only two occur in Canada; P. atra is Holarctic. The two Canadian species are separable as follows:

The distinctive characters of this species are the single ors, relatively short second costal section, non-projecting frons, and yellow knees. It resembles P. saskatoonensis bttt is disttnguishable-by the longer second costal section and yellow knees on all legs. It also closely resembles P. modica but the second cost;l section is slightly lo-nger; the aedeagus of the two species is of the same general form but the differences are distinctive. The genitalia of this species are externally similar to _two EuroPean species feeding ii the stem of Ctematis rectd, P. clernatidicaulis Hg., and P. nouitzkyi Herinf, 1958 (Fig.548). These two species, however, are generally similar to, but oSviously disiinct from, cletnatid.ofihoeta; the mesonotum of clematidicaulis is conspicuously mat-gray, while in novitzkyl the frons is broadly proiecting above the eve in the lowei half and all knees are yellolv. It seems certain in view of these similarities that P. clematidoDhoeta feeds in stems of Clematis verticillaris,

This species very closely resembles the cornmon European species, P. autumnalis Griffiths, 1959 (- affinisFall. sensu Hendel,793l-36, P.3,3+, and authors up to 1965). The head of P. hebronensls is somewhat broader than that of autumnalis and the upper orbits are distinctly darker. The male genitalia of the two species are geneiaily similar but there is a conspicuous difference in the semicircular chitinizid process of the distiphallus; in auturnnalis this is broken into two distinct sections joinecl to the inner .ot.t.rt of the arms of the basiphallus, with an area of paler chitiniz^tion below, while in hebronensis the two sections are fused to form a single slender semicircle with no chitinization below and the. open ends of the semicirile join the outer corners of the basiphallus. P. autunnzalis was discussed by Spencer (1965d,p.254, with figs. 10, l1). P. autumnalis is known as a leaf-miner on Cirsium, Centaured, and Onopordon and it seems virtually certain that hebronetcsl.r will have similar hosts'

The yellorv scutellum and short upper orbital immediately associate this species with the rattunculi-grotp. It can only be satisfactorillz distin$uished fiom ratrunculi and inf elix fy the male genitalia, which are entirely distinct. P. humitis is clearly the sister-species of cortusif olii Spencer_ (1965f), a leaf- miner on Ranttnculus described from Tenerife, Canary Islands. The aedeagus is of the same form in the tr,",o species (cf. Spencer 1965f , figs. 12, 13) but the disti- ohallus is substantially stronger in humilis, with a well-marked convex curvature 1.or..u. in cortusif olll) and-the trvo tubules are different in detail, the arms of the mesophallus ale more strongly chitinized, and finally the- paired structufes of the nypopnattus are shorrer trorder. The only. detectable difference externally ".ri ii fnat the palps are black in humilis and yellow in cortusif olii. With both humilis and cortusif olii each only known from a single locality, it is impossible at this stage to suggest lvhere speciation has occurred or the probable present distributilon of the trvo. It is certainly not impossible that cortusif olii occurs more widely in Europe and Asia and has been mistaken for ranrtnculi.

I have also seen 60 further specimens from Nedre N{idsommer, Peary Land, 14 June * 7 Aug. 1966 in the CNC. DrecNosrs. This is a distinctive species, distinguishable by the black frons, brownish-blacl< mesonotum, short second costal section, sPaISe acr' and deep lowls. These charactels readily distinguish it from P. fuscwla, a widespread Holarctic species from r.vhich it has clearly evolr''ed. The only grass from which this species has been reared is Puccinellfu but it has been crugfrt on other unidentified species containing leaf-mines; the exact host range th"us remains to be established. It occurs in large numbers in N!V. Greenlarid and the eastern part of Northwest Territories but has not bcen recorded west of Chestcrfield. Griffiths' (1966) records of fttscula from Grcen- lar-rd I have examined specimens as far south-west as Holsteinsborg - refer to prrccinclliac- (see p. 242\.

Frick (1959, p. +36) misidentified as spondylii a closely-related species so far only knor,r'n from California subsequently described as P. lonati (Spencer 1966h). Leaf-mines found bv the author commonlv on Herdcleutn lanatutn in Alberta in June 1966 were at first thought to represent P.lanati but eramination of the male genitalia has slrotvn the species tobe spondylii. There seems little reason to doubt that empty mines found at Val d'Or, Que., are of tl-re same species. As discussed under P. Ianati on p. 250, as a result of confusion ou'ing to the presence of two species in the type series of lanati, the leaf-mine r on Heraclernn in California is not in fact lanati b:ut herncleiphaga described on p. 297.

Substantial practical support was later provided by the Canada Department of Agriculture, whose financial assistance made possible a visit to Ottawa in July 1967 primarily to study material in the Canadian National Collection. I arn deeply indebied both io Dr. B. Hocking. who arranged my appointment at Edmonton, and to the late Dr. J. G. Chillcott, who sponsored my visit to Ottawa. Type material has been loaned to me by the following persons and Institu- tions: Mr. H. Andersson, Institute of Zoology, Lund; Prof. S. W. Frost, Pennsylvania State University, Penn.; Dr. W. Hackmann, Zoological Museum of the University, Helsinki; Dr. A. Kaltenbach, Naturhistorisches Museum, Vienna; Dr. J. Lawrence, Museum of Comparatle Zoology, Harvard; Prof. Dr. E. Lindner, Museum fiir Naturkunde, Stuttgart; Dr. habil. G. Morge, Deutsches Entomologisches Institut, Eberswalde; Dr. J. T. Nowakowski, Zoological Institute, Warsaw; Dr. P. E. Persson, Naturhistoriska Riksmuseet, Stockholm; Dr. H. H. Ross, Illinois Natural History Survey, Urbana; Mr. G. E. Shewell, Canadian National Collection. Ottawa; IIr. G. Steyskal, U.S. National r\luseum, Washington; Dr. P. Wygodzinski, American Museum of Natural History, New York. My best thanks are due to the above for their generous cooperation. I would-also especially like to thank Mr. Shewell, Mr.-Steyskal, and Dr. J. F. McAlpine for^their'help during extensive correspondencq in clarifying many taxonomic and other problems. During my collecting trips in Canada I was given assistance with transport and other facilities by V. Doby at Pelee, Ont.; E. Nelson-Kent at Prince George, B.C.; V. K. Sehgal in Alberta; and G. E. Shewell in Ontario and Quebec. Much valuable material was obtained on these occasions and I am extremely grateful to the above for their help. I had a number of helpful discussions on various aspects of the Canadian Asromvzidae with the late Prof. E. M. Herins in Berlin and also with Prof. W. HEnnig in Stuttgart. I would like to thank bith for their interest and assistance. Valuable help with the identification of host-plants was received from Dr. J. Packer at Edmonton and Dr. B. Boivin and D}. W. J. Cody at Ottawa. Miss L. Bowden of the Department of Botany, British Museum (Natural History), has also assisted me in clarifying a number of botanical problems. I am most grateful to them for the assistancE received. Particular thanks are due to mv wife for the meticulous care she has taken in the preparation of all drawings for this paper and I also wish to thank my secretary, Mary Smith, for her cooperation in typing the manuscript. Finally, I would like to thank Dr. Hockins- and N'Ir. G. C. D. Griffiths for helpful comments on parts of the manuscript.

Cerodontha (Dizygomyza) subangtlata (Malloch)' 1916 This is one of a group of closely related species and. there has been doubt abouc its rrue identity. I hive Jxamined tfre holotype from lllinois in the collection of rhc INHS and the'aedeagus is shown in Figs. Sh, S+2. This confirms that the species is distinct from any othirs known in Canada or the United States'

2. Calycomyza cynoglossi Frick, 1956 Frick (1956, p.295) recorded this species from a number of localities in canada' time The specimens I'hrrre examined all prove'd-to -represent other species and for the of being'ir musr be the sfecies doe.s n'ot occur in Canada.

3. Liriomyza f ehi (Malloch)' 1914 certainly This soecies was described from the American side of Niagara and almost also occuri in Canada. I have examined a topotypical paratype and the mesonotum, with the black area not quite reaching th" ,"lor.itl.,'t, ii sho*n in Fig' 544' The aedeagus is shown in Fig.o 545. Fror, (1924, p.43) discusses this species.
