  • The Family Dolichopodidae with Some Related Antillean and Panamanian Species (Diptera)
    BREDIN-ARCHBOLD-SMITHSONIAN BIOLOGICAL SURVEY OF DOMINICA The Family Dolichopodidae with Some Related Antillean and Panamanian Species (Diptera) HAROLD ROBINSON SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 185 SERIAL PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION The emphasis upon publications as a means of diffusing knowledge was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. In his formal plan for the Insti- tution, Joseph Henry articulated a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This keynote of basic research has been adhered to over the years in the issuance of thousands of titles in serial publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Annals of Flight Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the research and collections of its several museums and offices and of professional colleagues at other institutions of learning. These papers report newly acquired facts, synoptic interpretations of data, or original theory in specialized fields. These pub- lications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, laboratories, and other interested institutions and specialists throughout the world. Individual copies may be obtained from the Smithsonian Institution Press as long as stocks are available.

RUNYON1,2 1Rocky Mountain Research Station, USDA Forest Service, 1648 S. 7th Avenue, Bozeman, Montana 59717, USA 2Montana Entomology Collection, Montana State University, Room 50 Marsh Laboratory, Bozeman, Montana 59717, USA. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The new micro-dolichopodid genus Haromyia gen. nov. and the type species H. iviei sp. nov. are described from the island of Dominica in the Lesser Antilles. Males and females of Haromyia are distinguished by the large setae on a bulging clypeus, minute size, and wing veins that are nearly straight and evenly diverging from wing base. Haromyia does not fit readily into any contemporary dolichopodid subfamily, although it superficially resembles the Enliniinae and Achalcinae. Haromyia should be regarded as incertae sedis until the dolichopodid subfamilies can be refined, particularly to better incorporate the tropical diversity of this large family. Key words: Neotropical, micro-dolichopodid, Enlinia, Harmstonia, West Indies, Achalcinae, clypeal setae Introduction Robinson’s monograph of the Dolichopodidae of Dominica (Robinson 1975), a product of the multi-year Bredin- Archbold-Smithsonian Biological Survey, documented 113 species in 30 genera from the island. Three new genera, Cryptopygiella Robinson, Dominicomyia Robinson, Micromedetera Robinson, and 69 new species were described in that work (Robinson 1975).

Keywords: Checklist, Oriental, Taxonomy, Biodiversity, Inventory, India diptera. I. Introduction The family Dolichopodidae, commonly known as Long legged flies, are one of the most diverse families of Diptera (Grichanov,1999). Adult dolichopodids vary in size from about 1-9 mm in length and can be recognized by their elongate legs, reduced wing venation, aristate antennae, and relatively slender build. Most species are metallic greenish-blue to greenish-bronze, while some others are non-metallic yellowish (e.g., some species of Achalcus Loew, Argyrochlamys Lamb, Neurigona Rondani, Xanthochlorus Loew and Xanthina Aldrich), or brown to blackish (e.g., several species of Micromorphus Mik and Medetera Fischer von Waldheim). Dolichopodids are widespread and are found in all zoogeographic regions (Robinson,1970; Dyte, 1975; Dyte and Smith ,1980; Bickel and Dyte, 1989; Negrobov, 1991; Pollet et al., 2004). In general, adults and larvae prefer moist environments including stream and lake margins, humid forests, saltmarshes, seashores, and freshwater seepages, where they often occur in large numbers.

  • BIOGEOGRAPHY of DIPTERA 9 Ashley H
    SURICATA 4 (2017) 203 BIOGEOGRAPHY OF DIPTERA 9 Ashley H. Kirk-Spriggs and Burgert S. Muller Introduction is central to the concept of speciation by natural selection as promulgated by Charles Darwin and Alfred Russell Wallace. Biogeography entails the study of the geographic distribution of taxa and their attributes in space and time. This requires Studies of the distribution patterns of Diptera have been in- the interpretation of a suite of abiotic and biotic information fluential in biogeographical thought, e.g., Brundin (1966), de sets, if the distribution of organisms is to be understood. Many Jong (1998), Hennig (1960), Matile (1990) and Munroe (1974) factors are obvious, such as geology, topography, elevation, (Cranston 2005: 274), but probably less so than for more sed- precipitation, soil types and vegetation, but the relations to entary groups of invertebrates. More recent published diptero- palaeoclimatology, evaporation rates and proximity to the sea, logical studies have focused primarily on disjunctions between mountains and arid zones are more problematic to explain. In continental faunas, especially ancient groups exhibiting an recent years, data on palynology, palaeobotany, palaeontology, austral vicariance pattern attributable to common Gondwanan geomorphology, plate tectonics, volcanism, desertification and continental ancestry (e.g., Cranston & Edwards 1992; Krosch other climatic trends, has increased greatly. et al. 2011; Martin et al. 2003; Miranda-Esquivel & Coscarón 2003; Sæther & Ekrem 2003; Sinclair 2003) (see below). Diptera species occur in ranges governed by such biotic and abiotic environmental factors and distribution ranges are Stuckenberg (1962) published an account of palaeogenic determined by physical and climatic factors and topography, (meaning of, or relating to the Paleogene period) elements while environmental parameters also constrain distributions.

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.
