  • (Siphona) Geniculata (Diptera: Tachinidae), Parasite of Tipula Paludosa (Diptera) and Other Species1
    199 ON THE LIFE HISTORY OF BUCENTES (SIPHONA) GENICULATA (DIPTERA: TACHINIDAE), PARASITE OF TIPULA PALUDOSA (DIPTERA) AND OTHER SPECIES1. BY JOHN RENNIE, D.Sc. AND CHRISTINA H. SUTHERLAND, M.A., B.Sc, Carnegie Scholar. (From the Laboratory of Parasitology, University of Aberdeen.) (With Plate XIV.) THE Dipterous Family, Tachinidae, comprises a very large number of species whose larvae live as parasites within other insects, particularly in their larval forms. Bucentes (Siphona) geniculata, one of the Tachinidae whose larvae are considered in the following paper, is a small ordinary looking fly, blackish in eolour and showing a somewhat greyish abdomen, with prominent abdominal bristles. The labium is long and slender, sharply geniculated about the middle of its length, and folded like a clasp knife under the head when not in use2. In a former paper (1912) one of us has recorded the occurrence of the larva of this species as a parasite in the body cavity of Tipula larvae. It is probably not confined to one host species. In one collection of Tipula larvae, a pro- portion of which yielded the parasite, the majority of the survivors, on hatching, proved to be Tipula oleracea. In most instances, however, we have found the infected insects to be T. paludosa. Since the original observation in 1912, we have found this larva regularly every year, and consequently regard it as a normal parasite of Tipula. Other observers record it from Mamestra brassicae and a related species, Siphona cristata, is reported by Roubaud (1906) to occur in Tipula gigantea. OCCURRENCE AND DISTRIBUTION OF THE ADULT PLY.

  • Insecta, Diptera): Proposed Conservation of Usage by Designation of Musca Plebeja Linnaeus, 1758 As the Type Species of Thereva
    198 Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature 60(3) September 2003 Case 3251 Thereva Latreille, 1797 and Phasia Latreille, 1804 (Insecta, Diptera): proposed conservation of usage by designation of Musca plebeja Linnaeus, 1758 as the type species of Thereva Kevin C. Holston Department of Entomology, University of Illinois, Urbana, IL 61801, U.S.A. (e-mail: [email protected]) Michael E. Irwin Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences, University of Illinois, Urbana, IL 61801, U.S.A. (e-mail: [email protected]) F. Christian Thompson Systematic Entomology Laboratory, PSI, BARC, ARS, USDA, do Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560, U.S.A. (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract. The purpose of this application, in relation to Article 67.2 of the Code, is to conserve the usage of the name Thereva Latreille, 1797 for a cosmopolitan genus of stiletto flies (family THEREVIDAE) that currently includes 201 species, and also the usage of Phasia Latreille, 1804 and PHASIINAE for a group of tachinid flies (family TACHINIDAE), some of which are economically important as parasites of plant bugs (Heteroptera). It is proposed that Musca plebeja Linnaeus, 1758 should be designated as the type species of the therevid genus Thereva. M. plebeja was not one of the nominal species that were first associated with the name Thereva by Fabricius (1798). Fabricius used Thereva for a group of tachinid flies that are now referred to by the name Phasia Latreille, 1804. Keywords. Nomenclature; taxonomy; Diptera; THEREVIDAE; TACHINIDAE; Thereva; Phasia; Thereva plebeja; stiletto flies; tachinids. 1. Latreille (1797, p. 168) described a genus of stiletto fries (now in the family THEREVIDAE) and named it Thereva.

Biodiversity Data Journal 9: e61349. https://doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.9.e61349 Abstract The leaf beetle Chrysolina (Chrysolinopsis) americana (Linnaeus, 1758), commonly known as the Rosemary beetle, is native to some parts of the Mediterranean region. In the last few decades, it has expanded its distribution to new regions in the North and Eastern Mediterranean basin. Chrysolina americana feeds on plants of the Lamiaceae family, such as Rosmarinus officinalis, Lavandula spp., Salvia spp., Thymus spp. and others. Chrysolina americana is considered a pest, as many of its host plants are of commercial importance and are often used as ornamentals in house gardens and green public spaces. In this work, we report the first occurrence of C. americana in Cyprus and we present its establishment, expansion and distribution across the Island, through recordings for the period 2015 – 2020. The study was initiated from a post on a Facebook group, where the species was noticed in Cyprus for the first time, indicating that social media and citizen science can be particularly helpful in biodiversity research.

  • Cheshire Wildlife Trust
    Cheshire Wildlife Trust Heteroptera and Diptera surveys on the Manchester Mosses with PANTHEON analysis by Phil Brighton 32, Wadeson Way, Croft, Warrington WA3 7JS [email protected] on behalf of Lancashire and Cheshire Wildlife Trusts Version 1.0 September 2018 Lancashire Wildlife Trust Page 1 of 35 Abstract This report describes the results of a series of surveys on the Manchester mosslands covering heteroptera (shield bugs, plant bugs and allies), craneflies, hoverflies, and a number of other fly families. Sites covered are the Holcroft Moss reserve of Cheshire Wildlife Trust and the Astley, Cadishead and Little Woolden Moss reserves of Lancashire Wildlife Trust. A full list is given of the 615 species recorded and their distribution across the four sites. This species list is interpreted in terms of feeding guilds and habitat assemblages using the PANTHEON software developed by Natural England. This shows a strong representation in the sample of species associated with shaded woodland floor and tall sward and scrub. The national assemblage of peatland species is somewhat less well represented, but includes a higher proportion of rare or scarce species. A comparison is also made with PANTHEON results for similar surveys across a similar range of habitats in the Delamere Forest. This suggests that the invertebrate diversity value of the Manchester Mosses is rather less, perhaps as a result of their fragmented geography and proximity to past and present sources of transport and industrial pollution. Introduction The Manchester Mosses comprise several areas of lowland bog or mire embedded in the flat countryside between Warrington and Manchester. They include several areas designated as SSSIs in view of the highly distinctive and nationally important habitat, such as Risley Moss, Holcroft Moss, Bedford Moss, and Astley Moss.

El-Hawagry Abstract Tachinid flies are an important group of parasitoids in their larval stage, and all their hosts are of the Arthropoda, almost exclusively other insects, including important insect pests in agriculture and forestry. All known Egyptian taxa of the family Tachinidae are systematically catalogued. Synonymies, type localities, type depositories, world distributions by biogeographic realm(s) and country, Egyptian localities, and dates of collection are provided. A total of 72 tachinid species belonging to 42 genera, 15 tribes, and 4 subfamilies has been treated. Keywords: Tachinid flies, Egyptian taxa, World distribution, Egyptian localities, Dates of collection Background agriculture and forestry.

It is the second largest Hemiptera and Orthoptera. Consequently, tachinid flies family in the order Diptera (Irwin et al. 2003), with some have been successfully applied in programs of biological 1500 recognized genera (O’Hara 2016) and more than control against different insect pests (Stireman et al. 2006; 8500 described species (O’Hara 2013) worldwide. How- O’Hara 2008 and Cerretti and Tschorsnig 2010). ever, the estimated true diversity of the family is probably No comprehensive taxonomic studies on the family double the number of the currently known species, mak- Tachinidae have been carried out in Egypt before.

    3.15 Die Raupenfliegen und Asselfliegen (Diptera: Tachinidae et Rhinophoridae) des Naturschutzgebietes „Ahrschleife bei Altenahr“ und angrenzender Bereiche (Rheinland-Pfalz) von HANS-PETER TSCHORSNIG Abstract Tachinidae and Rhinophoridae (Diptera, Brachycera) of the nature reserve “Ahrschleife bei Altenahr” and adjacent parts Data are given for 100 species of Tachinidae (1113 specimens) and for 4 species of Rhinophoridae (179 specimens) from the nature reserve “Ahrschleife bei Altenahr” (Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany). The material has been collected using Oliver traps and Malaise traps. Especially worth mentioning are the rare species Prosethilla kramerella, Phebellia pauciseta, Loewia nudigena and Ceromya flaviseta. Catagonia aberrans reaches the northern border of its distribution in Europe.

Allein in Deutschland sind zur Zeit 509 Arten dieser in ihrer biologischen Entwicklung sehr spezialisierten Vertreter der Fliegen nachgewiesen. Die meisten Tachinidae sind unscheinbar gefärbt und schwer zu bestimmen.
