Changes in vegetation structure can alter the physical habitat structure, thermal environment, and food available to arthropods, which play an important role in the structure and functioning of Arctic ecosystems. Not only do they provide key ecosystem services such as pollination and nutrient cycling, they are an essential food source for migratory birds. In this study I examined the relationships between the abundance, diversity, and community composition of arthropods and the height and cover of several shrub species across a tundra-shrub gradient in northwestern Alaska. To characterize nestling diet of common passerines that occupy this gradient, I used next-generation sequencing of fecal matter. Willow cover was strongly and consistently associated with abundance and biomass of arthropods and significant shifts in arthropod community composition and diversity.

Flowering phenology and anthophilous insect communities on 64 plant species of 35 families were studied in the marsh in 1994-95. A total of 936 individuals of 215 species in eight orders of Insecta were collected on flowers from mid April to mid October, The anthophilous insect community was characterized by dominance of Diptera (58 9e of individuals) and relative paucity of Hymenoptera (26 9o), Hemiptera (6 9e), Lepidoptera (5 9e), and Coleoptera (5 9o), Syrphidae was the most abundant family and probably the most important pollination agents. Bee community was characterized by dominance of an aboveground nesting bee genus, Hylaeus (Colletidae), the most abundant species of which was a minute, rare little-recorded species. Cluster analysis on fiower-visiting insect spectra grouped 64 plant species into seven clusters, which were respectively characterized by dominance of small or large bees (18 spp.), syrphid fiies (13 spp.), Calyptrate and other flies (11 spp.), wasps and middle-sized bees (8 spp.), Lepidoptera (2 spp.), Coleoptera (1 sp.) and a mixture of these various insects (11 spp.).

The monophyly of the Muscoidea and the precise relationships of muscoids to the closest superfamily the Oestroidea (blow flies, flesh flies etc)e ar both unresolved. Until now mitochondrial (mt) genomes were available for only two of the four muscoid families precluding a thorough test of phylogenetic relationships using this data source.

  • HOVERFLY NEWSLETTER Dipterists
    HOVERFLY NUMBER 41 NEWSLETTER SPRING 2006 Dipterists Forum ISSN 1358-5029 As a new season begins, no doubt we are all hoping for a more productive recording year than we have had in the last three or so. Despite the frustration of recent seasons it is clear that national and international study of hoverflies is in good health, as witnessed by the success of the Leiden symposium and the Recording Scheme’s report (though the conundrum of the decline in UK records of difficult species is mystifying). New readers may wonder why the list of literature references from page 15 onwards covers publications for the year 2000 only. The reason for this is that for several issues nobody was available to compile these lists. Roger Morris kindly agreed to take on this task and to catch up for the missing years. Each newsletter for the present will include a list covering one complete year of the backlog, and since there are two newsletters per year the backlog will gradually be eliminated. Once again I thank all contributors and I welcome articles for future newsletters; these may be sent as email attachments, typed hard copy, manuscript or even dictated by phone, if you wish. Please do not forget the “Interesting Recent Records” feature, which is rather sparse in this issue. Copy for Hoverfly Newsletter No. 42 (which is expected to be issued with the Autumn 2006 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 2006.

Big-headed flies (Pipunculidae: Diptera) of Šúr natural reserve, their habitat preference and phenology, Entomofauna carpathica, 28(1): 23-36. Abstract: Extensive faunistic research of Šúr natural reserve performed in 2008-2009 resulted in extending the list of Pipunculidae recorded so far from this area to 52 species. Claraeola melanostola (Becker, 1897), Eudorylas angustimembranus Kozánek & Kwon, 1991 and Eudorylas pannonicus (Becker, 1897) were documented for the first time from Slovakia. Level of dominance, habitat preference and phenology were analyzed and discussed. Key words: Faunistics, pipunculids, Slovakia INTRODUCTION Šúr natural reserve (Šúr NR) is large, well-preserved remain of boggy alder forest. It is assumed, that it is the last biotope of this type of alder forest in central Europe. In 1990, Šúr NR was included in the list of international key wetlands according to the RAMSAR convenience and is considered an area of European importance registered in NATURA 2000 (SKUEV0279 Šúr). Šúr NR is situated in close vicinity of Bratislava. Its current area is 654.959 ha, with an altitude of 128- 132 msl. Despite negative anthropogenic factors influencing Šúr NR in last decades, resulting in the reduction of its natural values, it is still a place with unique flora and fauna (FŰRY 2010). Šúr NR has been in the center of interest of botanists and zoologists since the middle of the 19th century, when KORNHUBER (1858) published the first comprehensive list on its flora.

Introduction to the Family and the Genus Verrcdlia Mik Rut Morakote and Yoshihiro Hirashima Entomological Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, Kyushu University, Fukuoka 812, Japan (Received March 31, 1989) A classification of the family Pipunculidae of Japan is presented for the first time based on the examination of about 2,000 Japanese pipunculid specimens. It was revealed that the Japanese fauna is composed of 3 subfamilies, 8 genera and 108 species. One genus and twenty four species are newly recorded from Japan, and sixty two species are described as new to science. In this paper (Part I ) historical review of works of this family in Japan, morphology and terminology of adults, and a key to subfamilies, tribes and genera as well as biological data of found species are given. Besides, eight species of the genus Verrallia Mik are treated, with key to species and illustrations of their important diagnostic characters. Three of them are new species and four of them are new to Japan. INTRODUCTION Up to present about 600-700 described species of pipunculid flies have been recorded from all over the world.

We re-describe the late Eocene (Priabonian) species Protonephrocerus florissantius Carpenter and Hull from Florissant, Colorado, United States of America, and assign it to a new genus proposed here, Priabona new genus. Pipunculinae species A is the oldest known member of the family whose wing lacks a separated M2 vein; previously this had been known in species only as old as Miocene Dominican amber. This is a presumably derived character state that is predominant in modern species. Molecular analysis indicates an origin of the Pipunculidae in the Maastrichtian; the morphological and taxonomic diversity seen here in the Ypresian is consistent with an early radiation of the family. This is concordant with the radiation of Auchenorrhyncha, upon which they mostly prey, which is in turn associated with the early Paleogene diversification of angiosperm-dominated forests recovering from the K-Pg extinction event. Re´sume´—Nous de´crivons trois nouvelles espe`ces de Pipunculidae (Diptera), dont une est nomme´e, de l’e´oce`ne infe´rieur (ypre´sien) des terres hautes de l’Okanagan en Colombie-Britannique, Canada, et de l’e´tat de Washington, E´tats-Unis d’Ame´rique: Metanephrocerus belgardeae nouvelle espe`ce de Republic, Washington et Pipunculidae espe`ce A et Pipunculinae espe`ce A de Quilchena, Colombie- Britannique.

Gaimari, editor Plant Pest Diagnostics Branch California Department of Food & Agriculture 3294 Meadowview Road Sacramento, California 95832, USA Tel: (916) 262-1131 FAX: (916) 262-1190 Email: [email protected] Welcome to the latest issue of Fly Times! As usual, I thank everyone for sending in such interesting articles. I hope you all enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed putting it together. Please let me encourage all of you to consider contributing articles that may be of interest to the Diptera community for the next issue. Fly Times offers a great forum to report on your research activities and to make requests for taxa being studied, as well as to report interesting observations about flies, to discuss new and improved methods, to advertise opportunities for dipterists, to report on or announce meetings relevant to the community, etc., with all the associated digital images you wish to provide. This is also a great placeto report on your interesting (and hopefully fruitful) collecting activities! Really anything fly-related is considered. And of course, thanks very much to Chris Borkent for again assembling the list of Diptera citations since the last Fly Times! The electronic version of the Fly Times continues to be hosted on the North American Dipterists Society website at http://www.nadsdiptera.org/News/FlyTimes/Flyhome.htm. For this issue, I want to again thank all the contributors for sending me such great articles! Feel free to share your opinions or provide ideas on how to improve the newsletter.
