LLOYD2,3,JUAN MANUEL PERILLALÓPEZ4, VANESSA L. GONZÁLEZ2, ARIANNA THOMAS-CABIANCA5 andTORSTEN DIKOW2 1Museum für Naturkunde, Leibniz Institute for Evolution and Biodiversity Science, Berlin, Germany, 2National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC, U.S.A., 3The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, ME, U.S.A., 4Department of Biological Sciences, Wright State University, Dayton, OH, U.S.A. and 5Department of Environmental Science and Natural Resources, University of Alicante, Alicante, Spain Abstract. The diverse superfamily Oestroidea with more than 15 000 known species includes among others blow flies, flesh flies, bot flies and the diverse tachinid flies. Oestroidea exhibit strikingly divergent morphological and ecological traits, but even with a variety of data sources and inferences there is no consensus on the relationships among major Oestroidea lineages. Phylogenomic inferences derived from targeted enrichment of ultraconserved elements or UCEs have emerged as a promising method for resolving difficult phylogenetic problems at varying timescales. To reconstruct phylogenetic relationships among families of Oestroidea, we obtained UCE loci exclusively derived from the transcribed portion of the genome, making them suitable for larger and more integrative phylogenomic studies using other genomic and transcriptomic resources. We analysed datasets containing 37–2077 UCE loci from 98 representatives of all oestroid families (except Ulurumyiidae and Mystacinobiidae) and seven calyptrate outgroups, with a total concatenated aligned length between 10 and 550 Mb. About 35% of the sampled taxa consisted of museum specimens (2–92 years old), of which 85% resulted in successful UCE enrichment.

  • REVISTA Brasilelra DE ZOOLOGIA
    REVISTA BRASILElRA DE ZOOLOGIA Revta bras. Zool., S Paulo 3(3): 109-169 28.vi.l985 A REVISION OF THE NEW WORLD CHRYSOMYINI (DIPTERA: CALLIPHORIDAE) JAMES P. DEAR ABSTRACT The 24 New World species of Chrysomyini are revised. Keys are given to genera and species with illustrations of characters of diagnostic and syste­ matic importance. All taxa are fully described (except for the species of Chrysomya and Cochliomyia), and reference is made to their biology where is known. There are 20 endemic species (1 Chloroprocta, 3 Paralucilia, 6 He­ milucilia, 4 Cochliomyia, 6 Compsomyops), and 4 Chrysomya have been in­ troduced from the Old World. Four new species are described: Paralucilia adesposta, P. xantogeneiates, Hermilucilia melusina, Compsomyops melloi. The­ re are 2 new generic and 2 new specific synonymies. The types of previously described species have been examined wherever possible, and lectotypes de­ signated where appropriate. INTRODUCTION The Calliphorid tribe Chrysomyini is represented in the New World by 20 endemic species and four introduced species: the endemic species are in­ cluded in five genera (Chloroprocta, Paralucilia, Hemilucilia, Cochliomyia, Compsomyops) whilst the introduced species all belong to the Old World genus Chrysomya. Like their Old World relatives, the New World Chrysomyini are large, robust, metallic blowflies, but in their morphology they differ consi­ derably from these and, furthermore, each genus has one or more unusual (autapomorphic) characters. The following key will separate the New World subfamilies of Callipho­ ridae: I. Posterior spiracle with a long fringe of dense hairs which extend from the posterior margin along the lower margin to the anterior margin in a continuous fan.

  • Ultrastructure of Sensilla on Antennae and Maxillary Palps in Three Mesembrinellidae Species
    Caetano et al. Revista Chilena de Historia Natural (2018) 91:7 Revista Chilena de https://doi.org/10.1186/s40693-018-0077-6 Historia Natural RESEARCH Open Access Ultrastructure of sensilla on antennae and maxillary palps in three Mesembrinellidae species Rebecca Leal Caetano1,2, César Carriço1,3*, Doris Mendonça de Abreu Freitas2 and Zeneida Teixeira Pinto1 Abstract Background: Having the right identification is essential in the field of entomology. The scanning electron microscopy allows rapid and accurate identification of different species of flies since a better visualization of the external morphology of immature and some adults is possible. The aim of this study is to describe some ultrastructures of three flies in the Mesembrinellidae family: Mesembrinella bellardiana; Mesembrinella bicolor and Mesembrinella semihyalina, all examined by scanning electron microscopy to help increase the anatomical database on flies and deal with phlylogenetic implications. Results: The flies were examined under JEOL 6390LV scanning electron microscope (SEM). The microtrichia morphology of the antennae is similar to that of other and are present on all antennal surface with variable distribution. The chaetic sensilla were observed only in the scape (chaetic sensilla I) and pedicel segments (chaetic sensilla I-III). Three types of sensilla: trichoidea, basiconic and clavate were observed in the first flagellomere of M. bellardiana; and two types of sensilla: trichoidea and basiconic were noticed in M. bicolor and M. semihyalina. Olfactory pits were observed in both gender of M. bellardiana and female of M. bicolor. The maxillary palp of the Mesembrinella species in this study does not show sexual dimorphism. Conclusion: This investigation provided new findings of some diagnostic structures of flies using SEM, since many of them could have not been observed just by the use of light microscopy.

    390 Key to the adults of the most common forensic species ofCarvalho Diptera & Mello-Patiu in South America Claudio José Barros de Carvalho1 & Cátia Antunes de Mello-Patiu2 1Department of Zoology, Universidade Federal do Paraná, C.P. 19020, Curitiba-PR, 81.531–980, Brazil. [email protected] 2Department of Entomology, Museu Nacional do Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro-RJ, 20940–040, Brazil. [email protected] ABSTRACT. Key to the adults of the most common forensic species of Diptera in South America. Flies (Diptera, blow flies, house flies, flesh flies, horse flies, cattle flies, deer flies, midges and mosquitoes) are among the four megadiverse insect orders. Several species quickly colonize human cadavers and are potentially useful in forensic studies. One of the major problems with carrion fly identification is the lack of taxonomists or available keys that can identify even the most common species sometimes resulting in erroneous identification. Here we present a key to the adults of 12 families of Diptera whose species are found on carrion, including human corpses. Also, a summary for the most common families of forensic importance in South America, along with a key to the most common species of Calliphoridae, Muscidae, and Fanniidae and to the genera of Sarcophagidae are provided. Drawings of the most important characters for identification are also included. KEYWORDS. Carrion flies; forensic entomology; neotropical. RESUMO.

Diptera (califorídeos, sarcofagídeos, motucas, moscas comuns e mosquitos) é a uma das quatro ordens megadiversas de insetos. Diversas espécies desta ordem podem rapidamente colonizar cadáveres humanos e são de utilidade potencial para estudos de entomologia forense.

A modificação destes habitats é uma das principais causas de extinção de espécies. Poucos estudos tratam da restauração ecológica a partir de estudos com a fauna silvestre, e geralmente é dada maior ênfase aos agentes polinizadores e dispersores de sementes. Este estudo, a partir de uma revisão bibliográfica, propõe uma discussão sobre indicadores ambientais e refere os mesembrinelíneos como potenciais indicadores de ambientes florestais preservados pelo seu índice de sinantropia e adaptação em áreas florestais da Região Neotropical. Um dos aspectos considerados para utilização dos insetos como indicadores ecológicos é o curto período entre suas gerações, possibilitando respostas rápidas às mudanças ambientais.

    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.

  • Notas Sobre Mesembrinellidae
    Eos, t. LX, págs. 251-265 (1984). Notas sobre Mesembrinellidae POR S. V. PERIS y J. C. MARILUIS. El motivo de este trabajo, que es complementario a otro sobre los conjuntos de Calliphoridae sudamericanos, se debe al haber reunido material de este grupo y haber puesto de manifiesto algunos caracteres poco utilizados en la identificación de estas formas. Ello resultó tanto más interesante cuanto que uno de nosotros (J. C. M.) tuvo la ocasión de confrontar algunas identificaciones con materiales típicos en las colecciones de los Museos de París y Londres. Esto, junto al haber utilizado en claves algunos caracteres no utilizados usualmente, nos ha llevado a redactar estas notas. Las moscas de este grupo son exclusivamente neotropicales, habitantes de los bosques húmedos y sombríos, de un volar suave y su área de distribución se ex- tiende desde Méjico (Yucatán, etc.) hasta la Argentina (Jujuy, Misiones, etc.). Los Mesernbrinellidae son moscas que muestran una gran variación en algunos caracteres que, normalmente, ayudan en la clasificación de los Muscaria. Así, su quetotaxia es sumamente variable, pueden existir en las acr prst individuos con un solo par, con dos o —y esto es más curioso— con tan solo una seta, derecha o izquierda: igual ocurre con la seta posthumeral externa, que puede mostrar cual- quier grado de robustez, especialmente en los que hemos denominado Eumesern- brinella, y ello en ejemplares que al ser recolectados en la misma localidad y fecha es de suponer que pertenezcan a la misma población. No obstante, a grandes ras- gos, la distribución de grupos de setas sí la hemos utilizado, y parece funcionar.
