THE FAUNA OF DOLICHOPODID FLIES (DIPTERA, EMPIDOIDEA, DOLICHOPODIDAE) OF LATVIA - A PROVISIONAL LIST CONCERNING AN INVENTORY OF SPECIES AND FAUNISTIC DATA. – Latv. Entomol., 40: 39-60. Abstract: Up to now the long-legged flies (Diptera, Empidoidea, Dolichopodidae) represent a poorly investigated insect group in Latvia. In this article all recent faunal data and all known literature references on dolichopodid species from Latvia are given. 68 of stated dolichopodid species are new for Latvia. The provisional list of dolichopodid species of Latvia (142 species) is composed of both, detailed analysis of literature references and on determination results of sampled material. Key words: Diptera, Empidoidea, Dolichopodidae, fauna, Latvia. Einleitung (Lindemann 1830), in dem eine Langbeinfliegenart - Syntormon pallipes F. Die Dolichopodiden oder Langbeinfliegen (original Porphyrops pallipes F.) genannt wird. sind kleine bis mitellgroße (1-9 mm) Fliegen Weiterhin enthalten zwei Arbeiten von mit gewöhnlich metallisch grüner Körperfarbe, B.A.Gimmerthal Berichte über 38 schlankem Körper und langen, dünnen Beinen.

  • Intraspecific Variation and Asymmetry in Wing Shape of Dolichopodid Flies (Diptera, Dolichopodidae)
    International Journal of Entomology Research ISSN: 2455-4758 Impact Factor: RJIF 5.24 www.entomologyjournals.com Volume 2; Issue 5; September 2017; Page No. 10-20 Intraspecific variation and asymmetry in wing shape of dolichopodid flies (Diptera, Dolichopodidae) Mariya A Chursina Department of Ecology and Zoology of Invertebrates, Voronezh State University, Voronezh, Russia Abstract Intraspecific variation in wing shape of six species of the Dolichopodidae family was analyzed by the method of Procrustes superimposition. Specifically, we examined the patterns of sexual dimorphism, interpopulation variation, variation among individuals, directional asymmetry and fluctuating asymmetry (within-individual variability). The results suggest that sexual dimorphism is the most significant sources of intraspecific variation. Highly significant differences in wing shape were observed between populations of Poecilobothrus regalis, it reflects their adaptations to different environmental conditions. The analysis revealed significant directional asymmetry for wing shape of Poecilobothrus regalis from one of the studied populations; directional asymmetry had a significant allometric component. Four types of pattern of individual variation were discovered. It was shown that individual variation and fluctuating asymmetry have similar patterns. Based on previous studies of wing development, we made conclusions about the developmental processes, which cause different types of intraspecific variation.

Dolichopodidae (over 6000 described species in more than 200 genera) is one of the most speciose families of Diptera. Males of many dolichopodid species, including Dolichopus, feature conspicuous ornaments (Male Secondary Sexual Characters) that are used during courtship. Next to these MSSCs, every identification key to Dolichopus primarily uses colour characters (postocular bristles; femora) of unknown phylogenetic relevance. The phylogeny of Dolichopodidae has rarely been investigated, especially at the species level, and molecular data were hardly ever involved. We inferred phylogenetic relationships among 45 species (57 sam- ples) of the subfamily Dolichopodinae on the basis of 32 morphological and 1415 nucleotide characters (810 for COI, 605 for Cyt-b). The monophyly of Dolichopus and Gymnopternus as well as the separate systematic position of Ethiromyia chalybea were supported in all analyses, confirming recent findings by other authors based purely on morphology.

Sciapodinae from Baltic amber are pellucida (Meunier, 1907), comb. nov. (из рода Psilopus), reviewed. All species with strongly sinuate vein M are W. perastutula (Meunier, 1907), comb. nov. (из рода united in one extinct genus Wheelerenomyia Meunier, Psilopus), W. perattica (Meunier, 1907), comb. nov. (из 1907, including now 15 species. The following new рода Psilopus), W. quadrispinosa (Negrobov et Selivanova, combinations are proposed for species from Baltic amber: 2003), comb. nov. (из рода Amesorhaga), W. subparva Wheelerenomyia bickeli (Negrobov et Selivanova, 2003), (Meunier, 1916), comb. nov. (из рода Nematoproctus), comb. nov.
