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.

Hoverfly (Diptera: Syrphidae) Richness and Abundance Vary with Forest Stand Heterogeneity: Preliminary Evidence from a Montane Beech Fir Forest

Diptera, Syrphidae, Abies alba, deadwood, Fagus silvatica, functional diversity, tree-microhabitats, stand heterogeneity Abstract. Hoverflies (Diptera: Syrphidae) provide crucial ecological services and are increasingly used as bioindicators in environ- mental assessment studies. Information is available for a wide range of life history traits at the species level for most Syrphidae but little is recorded about the environmental requirements of forest hoverflies at the stand scale. The aim of this study was to explore whether the structural heterogeneity of a stand influences species richness or abundance of hoverflies in a montane beech-fir forest. We used the catches of Malaise traps set in 2004 and 2007 in three stands in the French Pyrenees, selected to represent a wide range of structural heterogeneity in terms of their vertical structure, tree diversity, deadwood and tree-microhabitats.

Life on an Island: the Phylogenetic Placement of Loveridgeana and Afrotropical Sphaerophoria (Diptera: Syrphidae) Inferred From

Three molecular markers were used, i.e., the mitochondrial protein-coding gene cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and the nuclear 28S and 18S ribosomal RNA genes. The Sphaerophoria lineage genera Exallandra Vockeroth and Loveridgeana were resolved within the genus Sphaerophoria, and the Indomalayan Eosphaerophoria Frey was placed sister to Citrogramma Vockeroth, both related to a large species radiation from the New World. Fazia Shannon and Allograpta Osten Sacken were recovered as non-monophyletic. Our results recovered two different Fazia clades with dissimilar natural history resulted from our analyses, and Allograpta species were resolved into two clades, one with Nearctic and Neotropical species and a second clade with species from Oceanian, Indomalayan and Afrotropical Regions.

The Hoverflies of Marsland Nature Reserve
The Hoverflies of Marsland Nature Reserve Arctophila ( Sericomyia ) superbiens Biology: The larvae remain undescribed, but are thought to be aquatic or semi- aquatic. Stubbs & Falk (1983) report an observation of a female ovipositing in a water filled hoofprint in a shaded muddy path beside a stream. Found near springs, wet flushes or streams, usually near the edge of woodland or carr. Adults visit purple flowers, especially Succisa, white umbels and yellow composites Distribution: A northern and western species which is locally abundant in suitable localities, these tending to be sheltered, and on neutral to acid soils. Local in North Devon/Cornwall First recorded on reserve in September 2008. July-October peak August Baccha elongata Biology: This species is found in shady places such as woodland rides and edges, hedgerows and mature gardens, where adults may be seen hovering low amongst ground-layer plants. The larvae are aphidophagous, preying on a variety of ground-layer species in shaded situations, e.g. Uromelan jaceae on Centaurea scabiosa, Brachycaudina napelli on Aconitum, and the bramble aphid, Sitobion fragariae onRubus. It overwinters as a larva Distribution: Widely recorded throughout Britain, but like most woodland species, scarce or absent from poorly-wooded areas such as the East Anglian fens and the Scottish islands. There is considerable uncertainty about the status of B. obscuripennis which has often been regarded as a distinct species. Most records submitted to the scheme are attributed to “ Baccha spp.”, but analysis of those where separation has been attempted do not suggest any differences in range, flight period or habitat preference Brachypalpoides lenta ( Xylota lenta ) Biology: The larvae of this species occur in decaying heartwood of beech, particularly in live trees with exposed decay at ground level.
