Diptera: Syrphidae) with Notes on the Placement of the Subfamily by F
A NEW GENUS OF MICRODONTINE FLIES (DIPTERA: SYRPHIDAE) WITH NOTES ON THE PLACEMENT OF THE SUBFAMILY BY F. CHRISTIAN THOMPSON I discovered the following new genus of Syrphidae while reviewing the Neotropical Microdontinae. I had planned to put aside its de- scription until my study of the subfamily was finished. However, publication of a second species, assignable to it by van Doesburg (1966) has necessitated publishing a name now for this genus so that it can be included in the Catalog of South American Diptera. Paragodon, new genus Very small (4-5 mm.) microdontine flies. Face simple (slightly produced in paragoides); cheeks absent, eyes bordering on the oral opening; eyes dichoptic in both sexes; occiput evenly developed. An- tennae short, about one-half as long as face; aristae short and thick- ened. Thorax about as long as broad; pleura bare except mesopleura pilose and meta.pleura with microscopic, pile; scutellum without apical spines and fringe; metasterna undeveloped and bare; metathoracic spiracles without hair fringes. Legs simple, with no basal setal patches on the femora and with cicatrices only on the hind femora. Vings without the spurious vein, with all apical crossveins straight. Abdomen oval, lateral margins slightly emarginate and rolled under ventrally, with ISt sternite bare and st spiracles without hair fringes. Genitalia simple; ejaculatory apodeme simple, apical por- tion not triangularly flared; ejaculato.ry sac not sclerotized; ejacula- tory process single, short, not posteriorly fused to ejaculatory hood; ejaculatory hood with anterior ventral portion elongate; sustentacu- lar apodeme present, double, fused anteriorly to base of ejaculatory Contribution no. 1392 from the Systematics and Morphology Research Laboratory, Department of Entomology, University of Massachusetts. -

Chapter 7 – Associations Between Microdontinae and Ants

Author: Reemer, Menno Title: Unravelling a hotchpotch : phylogeny and classification of the Microdontinae (Diptera: Syrphidae) Issue Date: 2012-03-13 7 Review and phylogenetic evaluation of associations between Microdontinae (Diptera: Syrphidae) and ants (Hymeno- ptera: Formicidae) Abstract. The immature stages of hoverflies of the subfamily Microdontinae (Diptera: Syrphidae) are known to develop in ants nests, as predators of the ant brood. The present paper reviews published and unpublished records of associations of Microdontinae with ants, in order to discuss the following questions: 1. are alle Microdontinae associated with ants?; 2. are Microdontinae associated with all ants?; 3. are particular clades of Microdontinae associated with particular clades of ants? A total number of 103 records of associations between the groups are evaluated, relating to 42 species of Microdontinae belonging to 14 (sub)genera, and to 58 species of ants belonging to 23 genera and four subfamilies. Known associations are mapped onto the most recent phylogenetic hypotheses of both ants and Microdontinae. The taxa of Microdontinae found in association with ants appear to occur scattered throughout their phylogenetic tree, and one of the supposedly most basal taxa (Mixogaster) is known to be associated with ants. This suggests that associations with ants evolved early in the history of the subfamily, and have remained a predominant feature of their lifestyle. When considering the phylogeny of ants, associations with Microdontinae are only known from the subfamilies Dolichoderinae, Formicinae, Myrmicinae and Pseudomyrmecinae, which are all part of the the so-called ‘formicoid’ clade. -
Phylogeny of the Hymenoptera: a Cladistic Reanalysis of Rasnitsyn's (1988) Data
Phylogeny of the Hymenoptera: A cladistic reanalysis of Rasnitsyn's (1988) data FREDRIK RONQUIST,ALEXANDR P. RASNITSYN,ALAIN ROY,KATARINA ERIKSSON &MAGNUS LINDGREN Accepted: 26 April 1999 Ronquist, F., Rasnitsyn, A. P., Roy, A., Eriksson, K. & Lindgren, M. (1999) Phylogeny of the Hymenoptera: A cladistic reanalysis of Rasnitsyn's (1998) data. Ð Zoologica Scripta 28, 13±50. The hypothesis of higher-level relationships among extinct and extant hymenopterans presented by Rasnitsyn in 1988 is widely cited but the evidence has never been presented in the form of a character matrix or analysed cladistically. We review Rasnitsyn's morphological work and derive a character matrix for fossil and recent hymenopterans from it. Parsimony analyses of this matrix under equal weights and implied weights show that there is little support for Rasnitsyn's biphyletic hypothesis, postulating a sister-group relationship between tenthredinoids and macroxyelines. Instead, the data favour the conventional view that Hymenoptera excluding the Xyelidae are monophyletic. Higher- level symphytan relationships are well resolved and, except for the basal branchings, largely agree with the tree presented by Rasnitsyn. There is little convincing support for any major divisions of the Apocrita but the Microhymenoptera and the Ichneumonoidea + Aculeata appear as monophyletic groups in some analyses and require only a few extra steps in the others. The Evaniomorpha appear as a paraphyletic grade of basal apocritan lineages and enforcing monophyly of this grouping requires a considerable increase in tree length. The Ceraphronoidea are placed in the Proctotrupomorpha, close to Chalcidoidea and Platygastroidea. This signal is not entirely due to loss characters that may have evolved independently in these taxa in response to a general reduction in size. -
The Phylogeny and Evolutionary Biology of the Pimplinae (Hymenoptera : Ichneumonidae)
THE PHYLOGENY AND EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY OF THE PIMPLINAE (HYMENOPTERA : ICHNEUMONIDAE) Paul Eggleton A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of London Department of Entomology Department of Pure & Applied B ritish Museum (Natural H istory) Biology, Imperial College London London May 1989 ABSTRACT £ The phylogeny and evolutionary biology of the Pimplinae are investigated using a cladistic compatibility method. Cladistic methodology is reviewed in the introduction, and the advantages of using a compatibility method explained. Unweighted and weighted compatibility techniques are outlined. The presently accepted classification of the Pimplinae is investigated by reference to the diagnostic characters used by earlier workers. The Pimplinae do not form a natural grouping using this character set. An additional 22 new characters are added to the data set for a further analysis. The results show that the Pimplinae (sensu lato) form four separate and unconnected lineages. It is recommended that the lineages each be given subfamily status. Other taxonomic changes at tribal level are suggested. The host and host microhabitat relations of the Pimplinae (sensu s tr ic to ) are placed within the evolutionary framework of the analyses of morphological characters. The importance of a primitive association with hosts in decaying wood is stressed, and the various evolutionary pathways away from this microhabitat discussed. The biology of the Rhyssinae is reviewed, especially with respect to mating behaviour and male reproductive strategies. The Rhyssinae (78 species) are analysed cladistically using 62 characters, but excluding characters thought to be connected with mating behaviour. Morphometric studies show that certain male gastral characters are associated with particular mating systems. -

C. 20013-7012 USA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A new genus and species of flower flies is described from China (Furcantenna Cheng, type F. yangi Cheng). Another new genus is proposed for the Afrotropical species incorrectly placed in Ceratophya, Afromicrodon Thompson, type Microdon johannae Doesburg. A key is provided to the groups of the Subfamily Microdontinae, along with a checklist of genus-group names proposed within the subfamily and nomenclatural and taxonomic notes on them. Key words: Taxonomy, Syrphidae, Microdontinae, key, China, Afrotropics Introduction Microdontine flies are an unusual group among the flower flies. The adults are rarely encountered as they do not go to flowers and remain close to their breeding sites. The known larvae are predators of ant brood, and, hence, found in ant nests (Andries 1912, Duffield 1981). Adults are found commonly around those nests and do not range far from them. Normally microdontine flies are rare in Malaise and other kind of traps, but if the trap is close to ant nests, then adults can be abundant in the trap samples. -

Diptera: Syrphidae) of Surinam, with a Key to the Neotropical Genera Menno Reemer
Tijdschrift voor Entomologie 157 (2014) 27–57 brill.com/tve A review of Microdontinae (Diptera: Syrphidae) of Surinam, with a key to the Neotropical genera Menno Reemer The fauna of Microdontinae (Diptera: Syrphidae) of Surinam is reviewed, based on a recent field survey by the author and a re-evaluation of previously collected material, mostly deposited in the RMNH collection (Leiden). A key to all 28 Neotropical genera of the subfamily is given. A total number of 42 species belonging to 13 genera are recorded from Surinam. Habitus photographs of all species are given. Compared with the checklist of Van Doesburg (1966), 24 species are added and five are removed. The following new species are described: Domodon peperpotensis sp. n., Microdon (Microdon) colakriki sp. n., Peradon satyricus sp. n. and Peradon sciarus sp. n. Five possibly new species are left unnamed, pending revisionary work of the species groups they belong to. A neotype is designated for Aphritis angustus Macquart, 1846. The following new synonymies are proposed: Microdon instabilis Wiedemann, 1830 = Microdon aurifex Wiedemann, 1830 jun. syn. n., Microdon batesi Shannon, 1927 = Microdon beebei Curran, 1936 syn. n.
