  • Diptera: Streblidae; Nycteribiidae)1
    Pacific Insects Monograph 28: 119-211 20 June 1971 AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY OF BATFLIES (Diptera: Streblidae; Nycteribiidae)1 By T. C. Maa2 Abstract. This bibliography lists, up to the end of 1970, about 800 references relating to the batflies or Streblidae and Nycteribiidae. Annotations are given regarding the contents, dates of publication and other information of the references listed. A subject index is appended. The following bibliography is the result of an attempt to catalogue and partly digest all the literature (published up to the end of 1970) relating to the Systematics and other aspects of the 2 small dipterous families of batflies, i.e., Streblidae and Nycter­ ibiidae. The bibliography includes a list of about 800 references, with annotations, and a subject index. Soon after the start of the compilation of literature in 1960, it was found that many odd but often important records were scattered in books and other publica­ tions on travels, expeditions, speleology, mammalogy, parasitology, etc. A number of such publications are not available even in the largest entomological libraries and might well have been inadvertently overlooked. While some 50 additional references are provisionally omitted because of the lack of sufficient information, new con­ tributions on the subject are almost continuously coming out from various sources. This bibliography does not, therefore, pretend to be complete and exhaustive. The time and effort devoted toward the compilation would be worthwhile should this bibliography be of interest to its readers and the annotations and subject index be of benefit. The manuscript has been revised several times and it is hoped that not too many errors, omissions and other discrepancies have developed during the course of preparation.

Whiting a a Department of Integrative Biology, Brigham Young University, 401 WIDB, Provo, UT 84602, USA b Department of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT, USA c Department of Biology, Boston University, Boston, MA, USA Received 1 April 2005; revised 25 May 2005; accepted 6 June 2005 Available online 8 August 2005 Abstract Bat Xies are a small but diverse group of highly specialized ectoparasitic, obligatory bloodsucking Diptera. For the Wrst time, the phylogenetic relationships of 26 species and Wve subfamilies were investigated using four genes (18S rDNA, 16S rDNA, COII, and cytB) under three optimality criteria (maximum parsimony (MP), maximum likelihood (ML), and Bayesian inference). Tree topol- ogy tests of previous hypotheses were conducted under likelihood (Shimodaira–Hasegawa test). Major Wndings include the non- monophyly of the Streblidae and the recovery of an Old World- and a New World-Clade of bat Xies. These data ambiguously resolve basal relationships between Hippoboscidae, Glossinidae, and bat Xies. Recovered phylogenies resulted in either monophyly (Bayes- ian approach) or paraphyly (MP/ML topologies) of the bat Xies, thus obscuring the potential number of possible associations with bats throughout the history of this group. Dispersal-vicariance analysis suggested the Neotropical region as the possible ancestral distribution area of the New World Streblidae and the Oriental region for the Old World bat Xies.

  • PARASITIC on MEGACHIROPTERAN BATS X
    Pacific Insects Monograph 28: 213-243 20 June 1971 REVIEW OF THE STREBLIDAE (Diptera) PARASITIC ON MEGACHIROPTERAN BATS x By T. C. Maa2 Abstract. Of the 16 streblid species previously recorded as parasites of the Megachiroptera, only 6 are here considered to be correctly so associated. Five of these 6 species are re-assigned to a new genus and only 1 is retained in the genus Brachytarsina (^Nycteribosca). These 2 genera are each divided into 2 subgenera and their host relationships, distributional patterns and evolutionary trends are discussed. Earlier records of the species are critically reviewed and are incorporated with new data which are based on some 650 specimens. The new taxa described are Megastrebla, n. gen. (type N. gigantea Speiser); Aoroura, n. subgen, (type N. nigriceps Jobling); Psilacris, n. subgen, (type N. longiarista Jobling); M. (A) limbooliati, n. sp. (Malaya, Borneo); M. (M.) gigantea kaluzvawae, n. ssp. (Fergusson I.); M. (M) gigantea salomonis, n. ssp. (Solomon Is.); M. (M) parvior papuae, n. ssp. (New Guinea). Streblid batflies are rarely found on the suborder Megachiroptera, composed of the single family Pteropodidae, whose members are generally referred to as fruit bats. Only 16 species have been recorded on these bats. A closer examination of the pub­ lished records clearly indicates that 10 of these 16 species (see Appendix II) should not be considered true parasites of the Megachiroptera; available data support the con­ cept that no streblids normally breed simultaneously on both the Megachiroptera and Microchiroptera, and among the 39 genera of the former suborder, only those which usually roost in partially illuminated caves and rock-crevices serve as normal breeding hosts of Streblidae.

  • F. Christian Thompson Neal L. Evenhuis and Curtis W. Sabrosky Bibliography of the Family-Group Names of Diptera
    F. Christian Thompson Neal L. Evenhuis and Curtis W. Sabrosky Bibliography of the Family-Group Names of Diptera Bibliography Thompson, F. C, Evenhuis, N. L. & Sabrosky, C. W. The following bibliography gives full references to 2,982 works cited in the catalog as well as additional ones cited within the bibliography. A concerted effort was made to examine as many of the cited references as possible in order to ensure accurate citation of authorship, date, title, and pagination. References are listed alphabetically by author and chronologically for multiple articles with the same authorship. In cases where more than one article was published by an author(s) in a particular year, a suffix letter follows the year (letters are listed alphabetically according to publication chronology). Authors' names: Names of authors are cited in the bibliography the same as they are in the text for proper association of literature citations with entries in the catalog. Because of the differing treatments of names, especially those containing articles such as "de," "del," "van," "Le," etc., these names are cross-indexed in the bibliography under the various ways in which they may be treated elsewhere. For Russian and other names in Cyrillic and other non-Latin character sets, we follow the spelling used by the authors themselves. Dates of publication: Dating of these works was obtained through various methods in order to obtain as accurate a date of publication as possible for purposes of priority in nomenclature. Dates found in the original works or by outside evidence are placed in brackets after the literature citation.

  • Diptera, Streblidae
    PROC. OF THE OKLA. ACAD. OF SCI. FOR 1958 Note. on the Biology and Distribution of Trichobius in Northwest Oklahoma (Diplera, Streblidae) VICTOR B. ZEVE, Oklahoma State University, Stillwater The Streblidae or "Bat Flies," belonging to the order Diptera, sub­ order Pupipara, are small, light brown flies varying from 1.2 to 3.7 mm. in length and are almost always parasitic on bats (Plate 1). Both males and females are blood feeders. These Diptera are widespread in distribu­ tion, but are rare in museum collections. The family Streblidae was established by Kolenati (1863) and the genus Tncho"'U8 was erected by Gervais (1844 ). Collection of these flies has occurred in Oklahoma from time to time, but little information has been published. Jobling (1938), in his excellent revision of the genus Trichobius, gives information in regard to distribution and host-parasite relationships. Additional distribution records of these parasites in Oklahoma are re­ corded by Kessel (1952) and Kohls (1954). The Streblidae are Viviparous and the larvae are retained within the female until fully developed. Only one larva matures at a time and it is deposited on the wall or ceiling of a cave where It remains immobile. Within a few moments the larva develops into a pupa. For the past year the author has been working on both the external and internal morphology and biology of TrichobiU8 major (Coquillet) . This problem necessitated the collecting of large numbers of this species. Many specimens of T. major and other species were obtained from several known bat caves in northwestern Oklahoma. The location of these caves follows: Conner's Cave: Five mUes south, two miles east of junction of U.S.

  • Observations on Antennal Morphology in Diptera, with Particular Reference to the Articular Surfaces Between Segments 2 and 3 in the Cyclorrhapha
    © The Author, 2011. Journal compilation © Australian Museum, Sydney, 2011 Records of the Australian Museum (2011) Vol. 63: 113–166. ISSN 0067-1975 doi:10.3853/j.0067-1975.63.2011.1585 Observations on Antennal Morphology in Diptera, with Particular Reference to the Articular Surfaces between Segments 2 and 3 in the Cyclorrhapha DaviD K. Mcalpine Australian Museum, 6 College Street, Sydney NSW 2010, Australia abstract. The main features of antennal segments 2 and 3 seen in the higher Diptera are described, including many that are not or inadequately covered in available publications. The following terms are introduced or clarified: for segment 2 or the pedicel—annular ridge, caestus, chin, collar, conus, distal articular surface, encircling furrow, foramen of articulation, foraminal cusp, foraminal ring, pedicellar button, pedicellar cup, rim; for segment 3 or the postpedicel—basal foramen, basal hollow, basal stem, postpedicellar pouch, sacculus, scabrous tongue, sub-basal caecum; for the stylus or arista—stylar goblet. Particular attention is given to the occurrence and position of the pedicellar button. The button is the cuticular component of a chordotonal organ, which perhaps has the role of a baroreceptor. It is present in the majority of families of Diptera, and possibly was present in the ancestral dipteran. Some generalizations about antennal structure are made, and a diagram showing the main trends in antennal evolution in the Eremoneura is provided. The general form of the antenna shows a transition from approximate radial symmetry (e.g., in Empis, Microphor, and Opetia) through to superficial bilateral symmetry (in many taxa of Eumuscomorpha), though there is usually much asymmetry in detail.
