Although gall midges are small and inconspicuous flies, they have important roles in both forest ecosystems and agroecosystems. To date, totally 73 species of gall midges belonging to 38 genera have been recorded in Turkey. Of them, 34 species in 24 genera belong to forest gall midge fauna. The richest area in point of forest gall midges reported is the Marmara region (21 species) following by the Central Anatolia region (9 species), the Black Sea region (7 species), and the Aegean region (6 species). In 34 forest gall midges, 32 species are phytophagous, one is zoophagous, and one is phytosaprophagous. Key words: Gall midges, Cecidomyiidae, Diptera, forest trees, fauna, Turkey INTRODUCTION genera of coniferous trees and 35 genera of broad- leaved trees in the world, respectively [6]. Trotter [9] was Cecidomyiidae (Diptera), the principal gall inducers the first researcher to collect galls on forest trees in around the world [1], is a family of flies known as gall Turkey. He determined 9 gall midge species including gnats or gall midges. The gall midges are small Dryomyia circinnans (Giraud), Hartigiola annulipes (mostly 1-5 mm in length), delicate flies with long legs (Hartig), Janetia cerris (Kollar), Janetia szepligetii and usually long antennae and with a reduced wing Kieffer, Macrodiplosis pustularis (Bremi), venation [2]. They are characterized by hairy wings Macrodiplosis roboris (Hardy), Mikiola fagi (Hartig), which are unusual in the order Diptera. The larvae of Oligotrophus panteli (Kieffer), and Zygiobia carpini (F. gall midges are tiny maggots, with the head small and Löw). Later on, some other researchers recorded some poorly developed and the mouthparts minute [2]. forest gall midge species in Turkey [10-22]. More than 1,200 species are known to occur in the The aims of the study were to give information on Nearctic Region [3] and approximately 2,200 species the forest gall midge fauna of Turkey and occur in the Palearctic Region [4]. It has been estimated zoogeographical distribution and some biological that the world fauna of gall midges includes four or features of them. five thousand species.

  • Population Ecology of the Multivoltine Neotropical Gall Midge Eugeniamyia Dispar (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae)

Departamento de Ecologia, Instituto de Biociências, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Av. Bento Gonçalves 9500, Bloco IV, Prédio 43422, 91501-970, Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil. ABSTRACT. Our understanding of the population ecology of insect gallers is largely built on examples from temperate zones, but tropical and subtropical gallers may present distinct patterns of abundance and distribution across time. Eugeniamyia dispar Maia, Mendonça & Romanowski, 1996 is a multivoltine Neotropical cecidomyiid that induces spongy leaf galls on Eugenia uniflora(Myrtaceae). Galls were censused in the urban area of Porto Alegre, southern Brazil on six plants at two sites, for two years, at roughly weekly intervals. Overall 9,694 eggs, galling attempts and galls were counted. New galls continuously appear on developing leaves, but galls with live inducers are absent from June to at least early August. Galls on a same shoot develop synchronically, thus the shoot is probably the unit for oviposition. Given the also synchronic appearance of galls on different plants on a site, it seems midges can disperse and attack close-by plants. Gall cohorts varied in abundance by two orders of magnitude; there were more galls during summer than for spring and autumn, in a wave-like pattern.

  • Streszczenie Ekologiczne Aspekty Interakcji Galasotwórczych
    Streszczenie Ekologiczne aspekty interakcji galasotwórczych pryszczarków Hartigiola annulipes i Mikiola fagi z bukiem Fagus sylvatica Niniejsza praca poświęcona została ekologicznym zależnościom między bukiem zwyczajnym a owadami tworzącym galasy na liściach. Galasy jako struktury, których rozwój i wzrost indukowany jest przez wybrane grupy bezkręgowców, stanowią obciążenie dla roślinnego gospodarza. Jedną z najbogatszych w gatunki zdolne do tworzenia wyrośli grup owadów stanowią pryszczarki (Cecidomyiidae; Diptera). Dwa badane gatunki pryszczarków: garnusznica bukowa (Mikiola fagi) i hartigiolówka bukowa (Hartigiola annulipes), mimo podobnego cyklu życiowego i takiego samego gospodarza, tworzą odmienne morfologicznie galasy. W niniejszej rozprawie wykazano, że garnusznica bukowa wraz ze wzrostem długości blaszki liścia buka ma tendencję do indukcji mniejszej liczby galasów. Co więcej, im więcej galasów na liściu, tym większa szansa na wystąpienie reakcji nadwrażliwej ze strony gospodarza. Zależność ta dotyczy zarówno garnusznicy, jak i hartigiolówki, reakcja nadwrażliwa odpowiedzialna jest za odpowiednio 40% i 51% śmiertelności galasów, i nie zależy od wielkości liścia. W przypadku drugiego wymienionego gatunku, większe liście charakteryzują się nieznacznie większą liczebnością galasów. Hartigiolówka wykazuje niewielkie preferencje wobec liści zwróconych na wschód, unika zaś te o wystawie południowej, ponadto częściej indukuje galasy w środkowej części liścia, a najrzadziej w dystalnej. W zależności od wybranej strefy liścia zmienia się

    Phylogeny and host association in Platygaster Latreille, 1809 (Hymenoptera, Platygastridae) Peter Neerup Buhl Buhl, P.N.: Phylogeny and host association in Platygaster Latreille, 1809 (Hy­ menoptera, Platygastridae). Ent. Meddr 69: 113-122. Copenhagen, Denmark 2001. ISSN 0013-8851. An examination of the known midge host/midge plant host associations for species of Platygasterparasitoid wasps seems to indicate a number of natural par­ asitoid species groups restricted to specific plant families. Midge hosts seem less indicative for platygastrid relationships, but several exceptions from this rule exist. The possible reasons for this are discussed. It is also shown that species of Platy­ gaster with known host associations generally prefer midges on plant families which are not the families generally prefered by the midges. Furthermore, a com­ parison of the known midge host/midge plant host associations for the genera of the "Platygaster-cluster" and the "Synopeas-cluster" shows great differences in the general preferences of the clusters. P.N. Buhl, Troldh0jvej 3, DK-3310 0lsted, Denmark. E-mail: [email protected] Introduction The phylogeny of the very large platygastrid genus Platygaster, tiny parasitoids on gall midges (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae), is mostly unresolved. The great problems which meet the investigator are primarily - as in all platygastrids - the few external characters avail­ able in a phylogenetic analysis. A further obstacle in the revisionary work is that many species are known only from short dated original descriptions (unknown or unrevised type material). Aspects of the biology (midge host or host plant of midge) are, however, known for about half the described species, so perhaps this could enlighten aspects of the parasitoid taxonomy- as was successfully done e.g.

  • Annotated Checklist of the Gall Midges from the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) Hans Roskam & Sébastien Carbonnelle
    annotated checklist of the gall midges from the netherlands, belgium and luxembourg (diptera: cecidomyiidae) Hans Roskam & Sébastien Carbonnelle The gall midges are one of the most important groups of gall makers. Emerging larvae produce stimuli and the host plant responds by producing galls, fascinating structures which provide food and shelter for the developing larvae. Most gall inducing midges are host specific: they are only able to induce galls in a few, often related, plant species. A few species have different feeding modes: among them are saprophagous, fungivorous and predaceous species and some are used in biocontrol. We recorded 416 species in the whole area; 366 species are recorded from the Netherlands, 270 species from Belgium and 96 species from Luxembourg. importance, in the 8th volume in the series by introduction Barnes (1946-1969) and published eleven papers Over more than a century M.W.
