Four species are omitted as they need to be described in the context of a revision (three Cheilosia and a Palpada species) and three other species (one Neoascia and two Xylota) will be described by F. Christian Thompson in a planned publication. Six of the new species have been recognised for decades and were treated by J. Richard Vockeroth in unpublished notes or by Thompson in his unpublished but widely distributed "A conspectus of the flower flies (Diptera: Syrphidae) of the Nearctic Region". Five of the 11 species were discovered during the preparation of the Field Guide. Eight of the 11 have DNA barcodes available that support the morphology. New information New species treated in this paper include: Anasimyia diffusa Locke, Skevington and Vockeroth (Smooth-legged Swamp Fly), Anasimyia matutina Locke, Skevington and This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the CC0 Public Domain Dedication. -

A new record for Iran flowerfly fauna, Baccha elongata (Fabricius, 1775) (Diptera: Syrphidae). 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. -
New Records of the Genus Callicera Panzer, 1806 (Diptera: Syrphidae) from Serbia
Acta entomologica serbica, 2015, 20: 59-66 UDC 595.773.1(497.11) DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.45389 NEW RECORDS OF THE GENUS CALLICERA PANZER, 1806 (DIPTERA: SYRPHIDAE) FROM SERBIA ZORICA NEDELJKOVIĆ1*, MARIJA MILIČIĆ2, LAURA LIKOV2, SNEŽANA RADENKOVIĆ2 and ANTE VUJIĆ2 1 BioSensе Institute - Research Institute for Information Technologies in Biosystems Dr Zorana Đinđića 1, 21000 Novi Sad, Serbia *E-mail: [email protected] 2 University of Novi Sad, Faculty of Sciences, Department of Biology and Ecology Trg Dositeja Obradovića 2, 21000 Novi Sad, Serbia Abstract Only one species of the genus Callicera Panzer, 1806, Callicera aenea (Fabricius, 1777), has been recorded in Serbia so far. In addition to the recurring detection of this species, the first records of Callicera aurata (Rossi, 1790) and Callicera spinolae Rondani, 1844 are documented. Based on the collected and studied material, the distribution maps and identification key for Serbian species are provided. KEY WORDS: Callicera aurata, Callicera spinolae, distribution, Serbia, identification key. Introduction With about 6000 described species, hoverflies (Diptera: Syrphidae) represent one of the most species-rich dipteran families. About 1800 species were recorded in the Palaearctic region (Van Veen, 2004). Hoverflies are significant pollinators of many plant species, and 19% of all insect pollinators are from the family Syrphidae (Rotheray & Gilbert, 2011). The genus Callicera Panzer, 1809 belongs to the subfamily Eristalinae, tribe Callicerini (Thompson & Rotheray, 1998). Callicera comprise robust bee-mimicking species, with very long antennae with arista posted at the apex of the third antennal segment. 60 Z. NEDELJKOVIĆ et al. The distribution of Callicera species is limited to the Holarctic and Indomalayan regions. -

Phylogeny of Syrphidae (Diptera) Inferred from Combined Analysis of Molecular and Morphological Characters
Systematic Entomology (2003) 28, 433–450 Phylogeny of Syrphidae (Diptera) inferred from combined analysis of molecular and morphological characters GUNILLA STA˚HLS1 , HEIKKI HIPPA2 , GRAHAM ROTHERAY3 , JYRKI MUONA1 andFRANCIS GILBERT4 1Finnish Museum of Natural History, University of Helsinki, Finland, 2Swedish Museum of Natural History, Stockholm, Sweden, 3National Museums of Scotland, Edinburgh, U.K. and 4School of Biological Sciences, Nottingham University, Nottingham, U.K. Abstract. Syrphidae (Diptera) commonly called hoverflies, includes more than 5000 species world-wide. The aim of this study was to address the systematic position of the disputed elements in the intrafamilial classification of Syrphidae, namely the monophyly of Eristalinae and the placement of Microdontini and Pipizini, as well as the position of particular genera (Nausigaster, Alipumilio, Spheginobaccha). Sequence data from nuclear 28S rRNA and mitochondrial COI genes in conjunction with larval and adult morphological characters of fifty-one syrphid taxa were analysed using optimization alignment to explore phylogenetic relationships among included taxa. A species of Platypezidae, Agathomyia unicolor, was used as outgroup, and also including one representative (Jassidophaga villosa) of the sister-group of Syrphidae, Pipunculidae. Sensitivity of the data was assessed under six different parameter values. A stability tree sum- marized the results. Microdontini, including Spheginobaccha, was placed basally, and Pipizini appeared as the sister-group to subfamily Syrphinae. The monophyly of subfamily Eristalinae was supported. The results support at least two independ- ent origins of entomophagy in syrphids, and frequent shifts between larval feeding habitats within the saprophagous eristalines. Introduction At the beginning of the last century, Syrphidae was divided into 2–20 subfamilies by different authors. -

Helophilus Affinis, a New Syrphid Fly for Belgium (Diptera: Syrphidae)
Bulletin de la Société royale belge d’Entomologie/Bulletin van de Koninklijke Belgische Vereniging voor Entomologie, 150 (2014) : 37-39 Helophilus affinis , a new syrphid fly for Belgium (Diptera: Syrphidae) Frank VAN DE MEUTTER , Ralf GYSELINGS & Erika VAN DEN BERGH Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO), Kliniekstraat 25, B-1070 Brussel (e-mail: [email protected]; [email protected]) Abstract A male Helophilus affinis Wahlberg, 1844 was caught on 7 July 2012 at the nature reserve Putten Weiden at Kieldrecht. This species is new to Belgium. In this contribution we provide an account of this observation and discuss the occurrence of Helophilus affinis in Western-Europe. Keywords: faunistics, freshwater species, range shift, Syrphidae. Samenvatting Op 7 juli 2012 werd een mannetje van de Noordse pendelvlieg Helophilus affinis Wahlberg, 1844 verzameld in het gebied Putten Weiden te Kieldrecht. Deze soort is nieuw voor België. Deze bijdrage geeft een beschrijving van deze vangst en beschrijft het voorkomen van deze soort in West-Europa. Résumé Le 7 Juillet 2012, un mâle de Helophilus affinis Wahlberg, 1844 fut observé à Kieldrecht. Cette espèce est signalée pour la première fois de Belgique. La répartition de l’espèce en Europe de l’Ouest est discutée. Introduction Over the last 20 years, the list of Belgian syrphids on average has grown by one species each year (V AN DE MEUTTER , 2011). About one third of these additions, however, is due to changes in taxonomy i.e. they do not indicate true changes in our fauna. Among the other species that are newly recorded, we find mainly xylobionts and southerly species expanding their range to the north. -

Dipterists Forum Hoverfly Newsletter Number 48 Spring 2010 ISSN 1358-5029 I am grateful to everyone who submitted articles and photographs for this issue in a timely manner. The closing date more or less coincided with the publication of the second volume of the new Swedish hoverfly book. Nigel Jones, who had already submitted his review of volume 1, rapidly provided a further one for the second volume. In order to avoid delay I have kept the reviews separate rather than attempting to merge them. Articles and illustrations (including colour images) for the next newsletter are always welcome. Copy for Hoverfly Newsletter No. 49 (which is expected to be issued with the Autumn 2010 Dipterists Forum Bulletin) should be sent to me: David Iliff Green Willows, Station Road, Woodmancote, Cheltenham, Glos, GL52 9HN, (telephone 01242 674398), email:[email protected], to reach me by 20 May 2010. Please note the earlier than usual date which has been changed to fit in with the new bulletin closing dates. although we have not been able to attain the levels Hoverfly Recording Scheme reached in the 1980s. update December 2009 There have been a few notable changes as some of the old Stuart Ball guard such as Eileen Thorpe and Austin Brackenbury 255 Eastfield Road, Peterborough, PE1 4BH, [email protected] have reduced their activity and a number of newcomers Roger Morris have arrived.

Hoverfly Newsletter 67
Dipterists Forum Hoverfly Newsletter Number 67 Spring 2020 ISSN 1358-5029 . On 21 January 2020 I shall be attending a lecture at the University of Gloucester by Adam Hart entitled “The Insect Apocalypse” the subject of which will of course be one that matters to all of us. Spreading awareness of the jeopardy that insects are now facing can only be a good thing, as is the excellent number of articles that, despite this situation, readers have submitted for inclusion in this newsletter. The editorial of Hoverfly Newsletter No. 66 covered two subjects that are followed up in the current issue. One of these was the diminishing UK participation in the international Syrphidae symposia in recent years, but I am pleased to say that Jon Heal, who attended the most recent one, has addressed this matter below. Also the publication of two new illustrated hoverfly guides, from the Netherlands and Canada, were announced. Both are reviewed by Roger Morris in this newsletter. The Dutch book has already proved its value in my local area, by providing the confirmation that we now have Xanthogramma stackelbergi in Gloucestershire (taken at Pope’s Hill in June by John Phillips). Copy for Hoverfly Newsletter No. 68 (which is expected to be issued with the Autumn 2020 Dipterists Forum Bulletin) should be sent to me: David Iliff, Green Willows, Station Road, Woodmancote, Cheltenham, Glos, GL52 9HN, (telephone 01242 674398), email:[email protected], to reach me by 20 June 2020. The hoverfly illustrated at the top right of this page is a male Leucozona laternaria.
