Flies) Benjamin Kongyeli Badii
Chapter Phylogeny and Functional Morphology of Diptera (Flies) Benjamin Kongyeli Badii Abstract The order Diptera includes all true flies. Members of this order are the most ecologically diverse and probably have a greater economic impact on humans than any other group of insects. The application of explicit methods of phylogenetic and morphological analysis has revealed weaknesses in the traditional classification of dipteran insects, but little progress has been made to achieve a robust, stable clas- sification that reflects evolutionary relationships and morphological adaptations for a more precise understanding of their developmental biology and behavioral ecol- ogy. The current status of Diptera phylogenetics is reviewed in this chapter. Also, key aspects of the morphology of the different life stages of the flies, particularly characters useful for taxonomic purposes and for an understanding of the group’s biology have been described with an emphasis on newer contributions and progress in understanding this important group of insects. Keywords: Tephritoidea, Diptera flies, Nematocera, Brachycera metamorphosis, larva 1. Introduction Phylogeny refers to the evolutionary history of a taxonomic group of organisms. Phylogeny is essential in understanding the biodiversity, genetics, evolution, and ecology among groups of organisms [1, 2]. Functional morphology involves the study of the relationships between the structure of an organism and the function of the various parts of an organism. The old adage “form follows function” is a guiding principle of functional morphology. It helps in understanding the ways in which body structures can be used to produce a wide variety of different behaviors, including moving, feeding, fighting, and reproducing. It thus, integrates concepts from physiology, evolution, anatomy and development, and synthesizes the diverse ways that biological and physical factors interact in the lives of organisms [3]. -

Stibick and Quarantine Psyttalia fletcheri (shown) is the only fruit fly parasitoid introduced into Hawaii capable of parasitizing the melon fly (Bactrocera cucurbitae) United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Plant Protection and Quarantine 4700 River Road Riverdale, MD 20737 February, 2004 Telephone: (301) 734-4406 FAX: (301) 734-8192 e-mail: [email protected] Jeffrey N. L. Stibick Introduction Introduction Fruit flies in the family Tephritidae are high profile insects among commercial fruit and vegetable growers, marketing exporters, government regulatory agencies, and the scientific community. Locally, producers face huge losses without some management scheme to control fruit fly populations. At the national and international level, plant protection agencies strictly regulate the movement of potentially infested products. Consumers throughout the world demand high quality, blemish-free produce. Partly to satisfy these demands, the costs to local, state and national governments are quite high and increasing as world trade, and thus risk, increases. Thus, fruit flies impose a considerable resource tax on participants at every level, from producer to shipper to the importing state and, ultimately, to the consumer. (McPheron & Steck, 1996) Indeed, in the United States alone, the running costs per year to APHIS, Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ), (the federal Agency responsible) for maintenance of trapping systems, laboratories, and identification are in excess of US$27 million per year and increasing. This figure only accounts for a fraction of total costs throughout the country, as State, County and local governments put in their share as well as the local industry affected. -

(Other Than Moths) Attracted to Light
Insects (other than moths) attracted to light Prepared by Martin Harvey for BENHS workshop on 9 December 2017 Although light-traps go hand-in-hand with catching and recording moths, a surprisingly wide range of other insects can be attracted to light and appear in light-traps on a regular or occasional basis. The lists below show insects recorded from light-traps of various kinds, mostly from southern central England but with some additions from elsewhere in Britain, and based on my records from the early 1990s to date. Nearly all are my own records, plus a few of species that I have identified for other moth recorders. The dataset includes 2,446 records of 615 species. (See the final page of this document for a comparison with another list from Andy Musgrove.) This isn’t a rigorous survey: it represents those species that I have identified and recorded in a fairly ad hoc way over the years. I record insects in light-traps fairly regularly, but there are of course biases based on my taxonomic interests and abilities. Some groups that come to light regularly are not well-represented on this list, e.g. chironomid midges are missing despite their frequent abundance in light traps, Dung beetle Aphodius rufipes there are few parasitic wasps, and some other groups such as muscid © Udo Schmidt flies and water bugs are also under-represented. It’s possible there are errors in this list, e.g. where light-trapping has been erroneously recorded as a method for species found by day. I’ve removed the errors that I’ve found, but I might not yet have found all of them. -

BIOTAXONOMY OF TEPHRITOIDEA Isr. J. Entomol. Vol. 35-36, 2005/6, pp. 317-340 Analysis of Mitochondrial DNA and Morphological Characters in the Subtribe Carpomyina (Diptera: Tephritidae) James J. Smith,1 Matthew Jaycox,1,2 Martha R.B. Smith-Caldas,1,3 Guy L. Bush1,4 ABSTRACT The phylogenetic relationships of 43 species in the subtribe Carpomyina (39 Rhagoletis spp., plus Carpomya schineri (Loew), Oedicarena latifrons (Wulp), Rhagoletotrypeta pastranai Aczél, and Zonosemata electa (Say)) are examined using morphological and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) characters. The taxon sample includes 5 Palearctic Rhagoletis species (R. almatensis Rohdendorf, R. batava Hering, R. flavicincta (Loew), R. flavigenualis Hering, and R. magniterebra (Rohdendorf)) and 5 Neotropical Rhagoletis species (R. blanchardi Aczél, R. ferruginea Hendel, R. lycopersella Smyth, R. nova (Schiner), and R. psalida Hendel) whose mtDNA relationships have not been previously analyzed. Phylogenetic analysis of 77 morphological features using unweighted parsimony yielded 28,671 most parsimonious reconstructions (MPRs). A strict consensus of these MPRs contained 12 clades, and further analysis using successive approximations improved phylogenetic resolution. 1Department of Zoology, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI 48824-1115, USA.
