Species of the genus Euarestoides Benjamin (Diptera: Tephritidae) are revised. comprises six species: E. abstersus (Loew) (Bahamas, eastern Canada and USA); acutangulus (Thomson) (Canada, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Puerto Rico, Trinidad & Tobago, USA, Venezuela); bimaculatus Savaris Norrbom, n. sp. (Peru); dreisbachi Foote (Guatemala, Peru); pereirai (Brazil); rionegrensis (Colombia). A key to known species is provided, as well descriptions,...
The Neotropical shore-fly genus Peltopsilopa Hendel is revised and now includes three species: P. acuta n.sp.; anisotomoides (Karsch), new combination; schwarzi Cresson. A fourth species name, aspistes Hendel, recognized as a junior synonym of (Karsch). We confirm that closely related to Cressonomyia Arnaud the in tribe Psilopini, subfamily Discomyzinae. provide generic diagnosis key South American genera Psilopini facilitate identification Peltopsilopa. included descriptions are extensively...
Two new, brachypterous species of Limnellia are described from specimens collected in the Venezuelan Andes: L. vounitis (Trujillo: Bocon, La Cristalina (Andes; 09°14.7'N, 70°19.1'W; 2500 m)) and flavifrontis (Mérida: Mérida, Sierra Nevada National Park (Laguna Negra; 8°47.1'N; 70°48.4'W; 3300 m)). To facilitate identification these unusual species, we have included a diagnosis tribe Scatellini genus also provided an annotated key to South American genera this tribe. The descriptions...
The genus Teloneria Aczél, 1954 is resurrected from synonymy with Chaetonerius Hendel, 1913 to include four species: apicata (Edwards, 1919) comb. nov., bimaculata juceliae Sepúlveda & Souza sp. nov. and ladyae Lectotypes for Telostylus apicatus Edwards, 1919 its junior synonym, Telostylinus apicalis Enderlein, 1922, ornatipennis synonym of are designated. An identification key Chaetonerius, Bigot, 1859 Teloneria, emphasis on the species illustrations distribution data provided.
The general aim of this study is to contribute and summarize knowledge the Bolivian fauna genus Anastrepha Schiner (Tephritidae) which includes species both ecological economic importance. In addition compiling data from literature, we report results fruit fly sampling using McPhail or multilure traps in Tropic Cochabamba region at private natural reserve Potrerillo del Guendá Santa Cruz de la Sierra, as well records various other sites based on specimens museum collections. Fifty-seven...
The taxonomic crisis, emphasized in recent years, is marked by the lack of popularity (lack interest taxonomy) and financial incentives to study biodiversity. This situation, coupled with issues involved necessity knowing many yet undiscovered species, has meant that new technologies, including use DNA, have emerged revitalize taxonomy. Part scientific community, however, rejected these innovative ideas. DNA barcoding especially been target numerous criticisms regarding its application, as...
The genus Chaetonerius Hendel has 25 valid species, predominantly distributed in the Afrotropical Region with only three species recorded for Oriental Region. Herein, we describe a new colavitei sp. n., from material collected Thailand and Malaysia.
ABSTRACT Ephydrini comprises 118 species (plus seven nomina dubia species) that are distributed in all biogeographical regions except Antarctica. The tribe currently includes 13 genera, of which three (Calocoenia Mathis, Ephydra Fallén, Paracoenia Cresson) include subgenera. subgenus and other genera (Neoephydra Notiocoenia Setacera groups. Representatives these groupings (genera, subgenera, most cases also groups) included the phylogenetic analysis taxonomic treatment. To test monophyly to...
Taxonomy is essential to biological sciences and the priority field in face of biodiversity crisis. The industry scientific publications has made extensive promotion display bibliometric indexes, resulting side effects such as Journal Impact Factor™ (JIF) mania. Inadequacies widely used indexes assess taxonomic are among impediments for progress this field. Based on an unusually high proportion self-citations, mega-journal Zootaxa, focused zoological taxonomy, was suppressed from Citation...
As part of a Ministry Science, Technology, and Innovation initiative, the Brazilian Societies Botany, Microbiology, Virology, Zoology conducted comprehensive evaluation biological collections in Brazil. This assessment aimed to gather insights into current state these collections, with goal providing support for future public policies, including financial subsidies prioritization policies. In this context, we present findings related microbiological essential ex situ biodiversity...
The diversity of hoverflies in five different habitats the Parque Estadual de Vila Velha, Ponta Grossa, Paraná, Brazil, from September 1999 to August 2002 was studied. These areas had been exposed various types anthropogenic disturbance at times, which resulted stages plant succession. In total, 2,841 specimens 151 species Syrphidae were collected using malaise traps. highest richness and abundance found edge forest (Forest Edge), whereas lowest most conserved areas. Evenness values...
The present study used the previously defined relationships among snail-killing species of Sepedonea as starting point for a cladistic biogeography analysis endemic areas in Neotropical region. goal was to use two different data sets test possible monophyly important biomes region: Amazon and Atlantic Forest. historical significance arid also investigated. Brooks Parsimony Analysis (Primary BPA). area groups were based on previous biogeographical classifications Neotropial analyses showed...
Apesar da riqueza e abundância de Syrphidae na Região Neotropical, a literatura sobre família nessa é relativamente escassa. A identificação espécimes pertencentes e, em especial, à subfamília Syrphinae, torna-se muitas vezes difícil pelo fato desse grupo possuir grande variação morfológica entre as espécies um mesmo gênero. Com o propósito auxiliar do apresentada uma chave ilustrada para subfamílias Eristalinae, Microdontinae Syrphinae os gêneros com ocorrência nos estados Rio Grande Sul,...
The present Catalogue includes 90 species and 23 genera of Tephritidae that have been recorded in Colombia. Four subfamilies (Blepharoneurinae, Dacinae, Trypetinae Tephritinae), eight tribes (Acrotaeniini, Carpomyini, Dacini, Eutretini, Myopitini, Noeetini, Tephritini, Toxotrypanini) are represented the Colombian territory. Toxotrypana littoralis Tomoplagia pleuralis new records for country. Trypeta conferta Walker, 1853 is here formally transferred to genus Neomyopites.
Twenty species of Tephritidae (Diptera) are recorded in association with capitula plants the family Asteraceae. The genus Tetreuaresta is registered for Rio Grande do Sul first time. Five newly Sul, and new hosts following fly species: Dioxyna chilensis (Macquart), Plaumannimyia dolores (Hering), imitatrix miseta pallens Hering, Tomoplagia incompleta (Williston), matzenbacheri Prado, Norrbom & Lewinsohn, reimoseri Hendel, Xanthaciura biocellata (Thomson) chrysura (Thomson).
Palpada Macquart, 1834 is a large genus of tropical Eristaliini flies with distribution restricted to the New World (Diptera : Syrphidae Eristalinae). Most species were initially placed within Eristalis Latreille, 1804. In 1972, most Neotropical transferred when F.C. Thompson divided sensu lato into three genera: Eristalis, Eoseristalis Kanervo, 1938 and Palpada. The latter was by (1981) groups species: scutellaris, agrorum vinetorum. present study, scutellaris group are revised phylogenetic...
Com o objetivo de caracterizar a fauna local insetos foram obtidas amostras semanais, setembro/1999 agosto/2000, utilizando-se armadilhas Malaise instaladas na borda da floresta e no seu interior. Uma análise temporal foi realizada com as espécies Syrphidae coletadas há, aproximadamente, dezessete anos mesmo local, dentro floresta. A abundância riqueza também avaliadas. Tanto quanto maiores Comparando-se os dados atuais aqueles obtidos em 1986/1987, observa-se um decréscimo Syrphidae....
