A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Biological Sciences University of Alaska Fairbanks August 2017 APPROVED: Pat Doak, Committee Chair Greg Breed, Committee Member Colleen Handel, Committee Member Christa Mulder, Committee Member Kris Hundertmark, Chair Department o f Biology and Wildlife Paul Layer, Dean College o f Natural Science and Mathematics Michael Castellini, Dean of the Graduate School ABSTRACT Across the Arctic, taller woody shrubs, particularly willow (Salix spp.), birch (Betula spp.), and alder (Alnus spp.), have been expanding rapidly onto tundra. Changes in vegetation structure can alter the physical habitat structure, thermal environment, and food available to arthropods, which play an important role in the structure and functioning of Arctic ecosystems. Not only do they provide key ecosystem services such as pollination and nutrient cycling, they are an essential food source for migratory birds. In this study I examined the relationships between the abundance, diversity, and community composition of arthropods and the height and cover of several shrub species across a tundra-shrub gradient in northwestern Alaska. To characterize nestling diet of common passerines that occupy this gradient, I used next-generation sequencing of fecal matter. Willow cover was strongly and consistently associated with abundance and biomass of arthropods and significant shifts in arthropod community composition and diversity.

Four species are omitted as they need to be described in the context of a revision (three Cheilosia and a Palpada species) and three other species (one Neoascia and two Xylota) will be described by F. Christian Thompson in a planned publication. Six of the new species have been recognised for decades and were treated by J. Richard Vockeroth in unpublished notes or by Thompson in his unpublished but widely distributed "A conspectus of the flower flies (Diptera: Syrphidae) of the Nearctic Region". Five of the 11 species were discovered during the preparation of the Field Guide. Eight of the 11 have DNA barcodes available that support the morphology.

Munis Entomology & Zoology, 5, suppl.: 900-903] ABSTRACT: Baccha elongata (Fabricius), 1775 is recorded for the first time from Iran. Three specimens were collected from Aynali forests. The related key, diagnosis characters and photos are presented. KEY WORDS: Diptera, Syrphidae, New record, Fauna, Aynali forests, Iran. The genus Baccha was described by Fabricius (1805) with Syrphus elongatus Fabricius, 1775 designated as the type species (Peck, 1988). This genus belonged to Syrphinae subfamily and Bacchini tribe. All species of the subfamily Syrphinae with an entirely blak scutellum are likely to belong to this tribe of four genera. The only exceptions are Paragus which is very distinctive, and some specimens of Melangyna arctica wich is included in the next trible, the Syrphini. There is generally a pattern on the abdomen consisting of pairs of colored spots of grey, yellow or orange (Stubbs and Fulk, 2002). They are, however, easily overlooked because of their frequent habit of hovering low down among vegetation or, even if above vegetation, they are inconspicuous in dappled shade. Baccha is a small genus including two species in palearctic region, B.

Diptera, Syrphidae, hoverflies, temporal structure, interspecific relations, null models Abstract. In this study we analyzed the inter-specific relationships in assemblages of syrphids at a site in northern Italy in order to determine whether there are patterns in diurnal co-occurrence. We adopted a null model approach and calculated two co-occurrence metrics, the C-score and variance ratio (V-ratio), both for the total catch and of the morning (8:00–13:00) and afternoon (13:00–18:00) catches separately, and for males and females. We recorded discordant species richness, abundance and co-occurrence patterns in the samples collected. Higher species richness and abundance were recorded in the morning, when the assemblage had an aggregated structure, which agrees with previous findings on communities of invertebrate primary consumers. A segregated pattern of co-occurrence was recorded in the afternoon, when fewer species and individuals were collected. The pattern recorded is likely to be caused by a number of factors, such as a greater availability of food in the morning, prevalence of hot and dry conditions in the early afternoon, which are unfavourable for hoverflies, and possibly competition with other pollinators.

  • Phylogeny of Syrphidae (Diptera) Inferred from Combined Analysis of Molecular and Morphological Characters
    Systematic Entomology (2003) 28, 433–450 Phylogeny of Syrphidae (Diptera) inferred from combined analysis of molecular and morphological characters GUNILLA STA˚HLS1 , HEIKKI HIPPA2 , GRAHAM ROTHERAY3 , JYRKI MUONA1 andFRANCIS GILBERT4 1Finnish Museum of Natural History, University of Helsinki, Finland, 2Swedish Museum of Natural History, Stockholm, Sweden, 3National Museums of Scotland, Edinburgh, U.K. and 4School of Biological Sciences, Nottingham University, Nottingham, U.K. Abstract. Syrphidae (Diptera) commonly called hoverflies, includes more than 5000 species world-wide. The aim of this study was to address the systematic position of the disputed elements in the intrafamilial classification of Syrphidae, namely the monophyly of Eristalinae and the placement of Microdontini and Pipizini, as well as the position of particular genera (Nausigaster, Alipumilio, Spheginobaccha). Sequence data from nuclear 28S rRNA and mitochondrial COI genes in conjunction with larval and adult morphological characters of fifty-one syrphid taxa were analysed using optimization alignment to explore phylogenetic relationships among included taxa. A species of Platypezidae, Agathomyia unicolor, was used as outgroup, and also including one representative (Jassidophaga villosa) of the sister-group of Syrphidae, Pipunculidae. Sensitivity of the data was assessed under six different parameter values. A stability tree sum- marized the results. Microdontini, including Spheginobaccha, was placed basally, and Pipizini appeared as the sister-group to subfamily Syrphinae. The monophyly of subfamily Eristalinae was supported. The results support at least two independ- ent origins of entomophagy in syrphids, and frequent shifts between larval feeding habitats within the saprophagous eristalines. Introduction At the beginning of the last century, Syrphidae was divided into 2–20 subfamilies by different authors.

    Dipteron Band 2 (6) S.113-132 ISSN 1436-5596 Kiel,15.9.1999 New data for the tribes Milesiini and Xylotini (Diptera, Syrphidae) on the Balkan Peninsula [Neue Daten fur die Triben Milesiini und Xylotini (Diptera, Syrphidae) van der Balkanhalbinsel] Ante VUJIC (Novi Sad) & Vesna MILANKOV (Novi Sad) Abstract: Distributional data are presented for four species of the tribe Milesiini (genus Criorhina MEIGEN, 1822) and 13 species of four genera of the tribe Xylotini (Brachypalpoides HIPPA, 1978, Brachypalpus MACQUART, 1834, Chalcosyrphus CURRAN, 1925, Xylota MErGEN, 1822) occuring on the Balkan Peninsula. The species Criorhina ranunculi (PANZER, [1804]) is recorded on the Balkan Peninsula for the fIrst time. A speci• men of Chalcosyrphus valgus (GMELIN, 1790) from Dubasnica mountain (Serbia) presents the fust verifIed record of the species on the Balkan Peninsula. Previously published reports of Xylota coeruleiventris ZETTERSTEDT,1838 on the Peninsula actually belong to X. jakuto• rum BAGACHANOVA,1980. Brachypalpus laphriformis (FALLEN, 1816), B. valgus (PANZER, [1798]), Criorhina asilica (FALLEN, 1816), Xylota jakutorum and X. jlorum (FABRICIUS, 1805) have been collected for the fust time in Montenegro. The record of Brachypalpus val· gus from Verno mountain is the first for Greece. A key to genera and species of the tribe Xylotini on the Balkan Peninsula and illustrations of characteristic morphological features are presented. Key words: Syrphidae, Brachypalpoides, Brachypalpus, Chalcosyrphus, Criorhina, Xylota, Balkan Peninsula Zusammenfassung: Verbreitungsangaben fur vier Arten der Tribus Milesiini (Gattung Criorhina MEIGEN,1822) und 13 Arten aus vier Gattung der Tribus Xylotini (Brachypalpoides HrpPA, 1978, Brachypalpus MACQUART,1834, Chalcosyrphus CURRAN,1925, Xylota MElGEN,1822), die auf der Bal• kanhalbinsel vertreten sind, werden vorgestellt.

The closing date more or less coincided with the publication of the second volume of the new Swedish hoverfly book. Nigel Jones, who had already submitted his review of volume 1, rapidly provided a further one for the second volume. In order to avoid delay I have kept the reviews separate rather than attempting to merge them. Articles and illustrations (including colour images) for the next newsletter are always welcome. Copy for Hoverfly Newsletter No. 49 (which is expected to be issued with the Autumn 2010 Dipterists Forum Bulletin) should be sent to me: David Iliff Green Willows, Station Road, Woodmancote, Cheltenham, Glos, GL52 9HN, (telephone 01242 674398), email:[email protected], to reach me by 20 May 2010. Please note the earlier than usual date which has been changed to fit in with the new bulletin closing dates. although we have not been able to attain the levels Hoverfly Recording Scheme reached in the 1980s. update December 2009 There have been a few notable changes as some of the old Stuart Ball guard such as Eileen Thorpe and Austin Brackenbury 255 Eastfield Road, Peterborough, PE1 4BH, [email protected] have reduced their activity and a number of newcomers Roger Morris have arrived.

  • Hoverfly Newsletter 67
    Dipterists Forum Hoverfly Newsletter Number 67 Spring 2020 ISSN 1358-5029 . On 21 January 2020 I shall be attending a lecture at the University of Gloucester by Adam Hart entitled “The Insect Apocalypse” the subject of which will of course be one that matters to all of us. Spreading awareness of the jeopardy that insects are now facing can only be a good thing, as is the excellent number of articles that, despite this situation, readers have submitted for inclusion in this newsletter. The editorial of Hoverfly Newsletter No. 66 covered two subjects that are followed up in the current issue. One of these was the diminishing UK participation in the international Syrphidae symposia in recent years, but I am pleased to say that Jon Heal, who attended the most recent one, has addressed this matter below. Also the publication of two new illustrated hoverfly guides, from the Netherlands and Canada, were announced. Both are reviewed by Roger Morris in this newsletter. The Dutch book has already proved its value in my local area, by providing the confirmation that we now have Xanthogramma stackelbergi in Gloucestershire (taken at Pope’s Hill in June by John Phillips). Copy for Hoverfly Newsletter No. 68 (which is expected to be issued with the Autumn 2020 Dipterists Forum Bulletin) should be sent to me: David Iliff, Green Willows, Station Road, Woodmancote, Cheltenham, Glos, GL52 9HN, (telephone 01242 674398), email:[email protected], to reach me by 20 June 2020. The hoverfly illustrated at the top right of this page is a male Leucozona laternaria.
