Phaonia amicula Villeneuve, 1922 is noted from Finland for the first time. Keywords Species list, Finland, Diptera, biodiversity, faunistics Introduction Four families make up the traditional superfamily Muscoidea: Scathophagidae, An- thomyiidae, Fanniidae and Muscidae. The monophyly of the superfamily has been strongly questioned (Nirmala et al. 2001, Kutty et al. 2010) on the basis of DNA sequence analyses. Three of the four families of Muscoidea are treated in this paper, the fourth (An- thomyiidae) is covered in a separate paper in this issue of ZooKeys. -

204 THE GREAT LAKES ENTOMOLOGIST Vol. 46 Nos. 3 - 4 Insects Associated With Droppings of Moose, Alces alces (L), in Isle Royale National Park, Michigan Alexander T. Egan1 and Roger D. Moon1 Abstract Moose (Alces alces [L]) droppings were sampled in June-August, 2007, in Isle Royale National Park, a remote wilderness island in Lake Superior, to characterize biodiversity of the park’s moose dung fauna. Twelve Diptera and nine Coleoptera species were obtained, for a total of 21 insect taxa. Twenty of the taxa are newly recorded colonists or visitors to moose dung. The Diptera were Psychodidae, Anthomyiidae, Muscidae and representatives of three other families, and Coleoptera consisted of three species in each of Scarabaeidae, Staphylinidae and Histeridae. Species per sample ranged from two in early June to nine in mid-July, and a species accumulation curve indicated a total of six more species remain to be detected. The relatively depauparate nature of the island’s dung insect fauna may be attributed to absence of other large herbivores, to geographic isolation from source populations on adjacent mainland, or to dis- tinct physical or biological properties of moose dung. Among reared specimens, Hylemyza partita (Meigen) (Anthomyiidae) and moose fly,Haematobosca alcis (Snow) (Muscidae) required approximately 3 weeks to complete development from egg to adult. Projections from weather records on the island indicated the two species could have completed as many as five generations between dates of last spring frost in May and first autumn frost in November. ____________________ Adults and immatures of many arthropods use dung of large herbivores for habitat and nutrition. -

Notas Sobre Muscini Paleárticos Y Revisión De Las Especies Españolas (Diptera, Muscidae)
BoL R. Soco Española Bis!. Nat. (8), 61: 209-269 (1963). Notas sobre Muscini paleárticos y revisión de las especies españolas (Diptera, Muscidae) por S. V. Perl. y Vleellta Llorellte El objetivo de este trabajo es el de presentar una revisión de los l1IIuscini espa ñoles, ya que nunca han sido objeto de revisión. El hecho de haber encontrarlo algunos datos nuevos fuera de estos límites geográficos nos ha llevado a extender l'l trabajo a la mayoría de los de la región paleártica. Se ha juzgado de interés el dar, como apéndice, una lista de los Muscini descritos de esta región, que espe ramos sea útil a ].os que trabajan en otras áreas geográficas. Todos los natos sobre estados larvarios, biología y de índole económica se han omitido. ya que nuestra idea ha sido sólo el de pwporcíonar a los interesados <:'n este tipo de problemas los medios indispensables para la determinación de los dípteros de este grupo que tengan alguna relación con el problema planteado, J nuestro mayor interés sería que esta publícación puniera servir de base y guÍJ. sistemática para pr.omover otros trabajos de índole biológica en este grupo de dípteros. tan interesantes para la economía y salud humanas. Sin emhargo, se añaden a la revisíón algunos pocos elatos de tipo ecológico para algunas especies, asi como unas consideraciones sohre la distrihución geográfica de estos insectos por estimar que es éste el primer fruto obtenible de un trabajo sistemático.

The Relative Importance of Olfactory Signaling to Fly-Moss Spore Dispersal Network Structure of Two Sympatric Moss Species in Newfoundland, Canada by © D
The relative importance of olfactory signaling to fly-moss spore dispersal network structure of two sympatric moss species in Newfoundland, Canada by © D. G. R. M. Manoj Kaushalya Rathnayake A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Biology Department of Biology Memorial University of Newfoundland May 2019 St. John’s Newfoundland and Labrador Abstract In Newfoundland, Splachnum ampullaceum (herbivore dung scent mimic) and S. pensylvanicum (omnivore dung scent mimic) grow in bogs on summer moose (Alces alces L.) dung and via olfactory and visual deception have their spores dispersed to dung by flies. In Chapter 2, the addition of carnivore and herbivore-mimicking scent increased the number of visiting flies, and the addition of carnivore scent attracted carrion flies, and this effect was greatest for S. pensylvanicum. In Chapter three consecutive years of fly trapping data for both species of moss were compared using Network analyses. Results showed that both mosses attract a generalized fly fauna (lower network specialization (H2 average) 0.171), most of which are also associated with summer moose dung (average connectance low 0.799). Also, the fly faunas of S. ampullaceum and S. pensylvanicum did not differ from each other in all three years. ii Acknowledgements I’d like to thank Dr. Paul Marino for being an excellent guide, mentor and a friend and for being there always when I needed help throughout these experiments. Also, I am grateful to Prof. Robert Raguso and Anne Gaskett for directing me to think about these research questions, providing feedback and sharing their data with me. -

Любвина И.В. К фауне настоящих мух (Diptera, Muscidae) Самарской области 03.02.00 – общая биология УДК 595.773.4 К ФАУНЕ НАСТОЯЩИХ МУХ (DIPTERA, MUSCIDAE) САМАРСКОЙ ОБЛАСТИ © 2016 И.В. Любвина, кандидат биологических наук, старший научный сотрудник Жигулёвский государственный природный биосферный заповедник имени И.И. Спрыгина, Жигулёвск (Россия) Аннотация. Впервые приведены обобщающие сведения о результатах изучения настоящих мух (Diptera, Mus- cidae) на территории Самарской области. К настоящему времени выявленная фауна мусцид области отличается высоким таксономическим разнообразием и включает 75 видов из 26 родов. Среди них 11 наиболее часто отмеча- емых видов: Coenosia mollicula Fll., Coenosia testacea R.-D., Helina ciliatocosta Ztt., Helina moedlingensis Schnabl, Hydrotaea ignava Harris, Musca domestica L., Muscina levida Harris, Mydaea setifemur Ringdahl, Neomyia cornicina F., Pyrellia vivida R.-D. и Thricops semicinereus Wied., составляют 15% всего видового разнообразия мусцид области. Основное ядро выявленной фауны Muscidae в регионе представлено широкоареальными и палеарктическими ви- дами (по 45% видов в каждой ареальной группе). Фаунистический комплекс мусцид характеризуется богатством биотопических группировок, эвритопностью большинства видов, у основной массы видов наиболее интенсивный лёт имаго отмечен в летний период. Предполагается, что на уровне родов состав семейства Muscidae выявлен примерно на 79% и возможно обнаружение представителей ещё 7 родов. Видовой состав семейства выявлен при- близительно на 64%, возможно обнаружение ещё около 43 видов мусцид в фауне Самарской области.

Diptera) Reveals High Correspondence Between Morphological and Molecular Species Limits Anaïs K Renaud1,2†, Jade Savage2*† and Sarah J Adamowicz3
Renaud et al. BMC Ecology 2012, 12:24 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6785/12/24 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access DNA barcoding of Northern Nearctic Muscidae (Diptera) reveals high correspondence between morphological and molecular species limits Anaïs K Renaud1,2†, Jade Savage2*† and Sarah J Adamowicz3 Abstract Background: Various methods have been proposed to assign unknown specimens to known species using their DNA barcodes, while others have focused on using genetic divergence thresholds to estimate “species” diversity for a taxon, without a well-developed taxonomy and/or an extensive reference library of DNA barcodes. The major goals of the present work were to: a) conduct the largest species-level barcoding study of the Muscidae to date and characterize the range of genetic divergence values in the northern Nearctic fauna; b) evaluate the correspondence between morphospecies and barcode groupings defined using both clustering-based and threshold-based approaches; and c) use the reference library produced to address taxonomic issues. Results: Our data set included 1114 individuals and their COI sequences (951 from Churchill, Manitoba), representing 160 morphologically-determined species from 25 genera, covering 89% of the known fauna of Churchill and 23% of the Nearctic fauna. Following an iterative process through which all specimens belonging to taxa with anomalous divergence values and/or monophyly issues were re-examined, identity was modified for 9 taxa, including the reinstatement of Phaonia luteva (Walker) stat. nov. as a species distinct from Phaonia errans (Meigen). In the post-reassessment data set, no distinct gap was found between maximum pairwise intraspecific distances (range 0.00-3.01%) and minimum interspecific distances (range: 0.77-11.33%). -

This species is very similar to P. lardarius (Fabricius, 1781). In this paper we give information about the historical occurrence, the distribution, the flight periods and some ecological aspects of both Polietes -species. Polietes meridionalis was initially described as a southern, largely Mediterranean vicariant of P. lardarius . Given the strong morphological similarity of both species, the question arose as to whether P. meridionalis and P. lardarius are two disctinct species or whether we have to do with a north-south cline of one species. Therefore we re-evaluated the morphological characteristics and analysed the information from mitochondrial COI sequence data. Keywords : Species new for Belgium, distribution, ecological information, flight periods, DNA- barcoding, Muscidae Samenvatting Polietes meridionalis Peris & Llorente, 1963 (Diptera: Muscidae) wordt toegevoegd aan de Belgische checklist.
