Larvae of a previously unknown species gall midge were found feeding on young fruit mango, Mangifera indica (Anacardiaceae), in Guangxi Autonomous Region southern China, causing severe damage to the crop. The new is named Procontarinia fructiculi Jiao, Wang, Bu Kolesik, its morphology described, basic biology given, and Cytochrome Oxidase subunit I (COI) mitochondrial gene segment sequenced compared other congeners. contains now 16 described species, each mango. All but three cause variously...
Chinese hickory, Carya cathayensis Sargent (Juglandaceae), is a tree naturally occurring and industrially grown in China for the nuts that are valued their taste nutrient content. Larvae of previously unknown species gall midge were found feeding on male female inflorescences Zhejiang Anhui Provinces eastern China, reducing pollination fruit development, causing substantial damage to nut industry. The new named Contarinia caryafloralis Jiao, Bu & Kolesik, its morphology described, basic...
Dasineura jujubifolia Jiao & Bu, sp. nov., a gall midge feeding on jujube, Ziziphus jujuba Miller (Rhamnaceae), fruit tree cultivated extensively in large areas of China, is described and illustrated based specimens collected from Alar (Xinjiang, China). The new species causes rolled leaf galls Northwestern China. Brief notes the biology jujube are given.
Larvae of a gall midge were found feeding on the fungal rust Maravalia pterocarpi (Pucciniomycetes: Pucciniales: Chaconiaceae) infesting economically important sua tree Dalbergia tonkinensis (Fabaceae) Hainan Island, China. The adults, pupae and larvae collected, their morphology was studied segment Cytochrome Oxidase unit I (COI) mitochondrial gene sequenced. proved to be species new science that belongs genus Mycodiplosis (Diptera: Cecdiomyiidae). Comparison sequence published...
Larvae of a previously unknown species gall midge were found causing large numbers pustulate leaf galls on Peking lilac, Syringa reticulata subsp. pekinensis (Oleaceae), in parklands and street greenery Beijing, China. Heavily galled leaves become senescent fall off prematurely. The is named Pekinomyia syringae Jiao & Kolesik, its morphology described the COI mitochondrial gene 12S ribosomal segments are sequenced. A new genus, Kolesik (Cecidomyiinae: Lasiopteridi), erected for species....
The genus Monopelopia Fittkau, 1962 is newly recorded from Oriental China. zhengi Lin sp. n., described and illustrated based on an adult male Jianfengling National Nature Reserve, Hainan, In addition, updated key to males of provided.
The mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) has been widely used as a powerful marker in phylogenetic and evolutionary studies of various Dipteran groups. However, only few mitogenomes from the Thienemanniella genus have reported till now. Furthermore, there is still indeterminacy relationships Thienemanniella. In this study, five species were sequenced analyzed newly. Combined with published mitogenome nipponica, obtained results showed that conserved structure, all genes observed to be arranged...
In this study, we obtained the first complete mitochondrial genome of Procontarina fructiculi, an important mango gall midge pest from Guangxi, China. The mitogenome P. fructiculi was sequenced and annotated for time, compared with all published data Cecidomyiidae species to summarise organisation rearrangement features genomes phylogenetic analysis. comparison structure shows that gene is very common, most rearrangements are embodied in order tRNAs. results based on maximum likelihood (ML)...
Axarus fungorum (Albu, 1980) exhibits certain adaptations to different aquatic environments, appearing as an important evaluation element for freshwater quality monitoring. In this study, complete mitogenome of A. was provided the first time define systematic and phylogenetic history taxon. The whole is 15,696 bp long with high A + T content that consists 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA two rRNA a noncoding control region. ML analysis showed support monophyly Chironominae close relationship...
Hazels, Corylus spp. (Betulaceae) are planted extensively in North and Southwest China as nut-bearing trees. Dasineura heterophylla Jiao & Bu, sp. n., a new species of gall midge that induces galls on leaves, leaf buds bracts young fruits hazels China, is described illustrated based materials from Tieling, Liaoning, China. This univoltine pupates the topsoil. Larvae reduce nut production hazels, especially heterophylla.
Ke-Long Jiao, Yi-Ran Mu, and Wen-Jun Bu (2017) The generic diagnosis of mycophagous Brachyneurina is revised to give an adequate description, updated key males all known species given for distinguishing from each other. First records in Asia are provided including two new species, hemisphaerica sp. nov. rhombica China described illustrated.
A new free-living genus of the mycophagous tribe Brachineurini, Loborrhizomyia gen. nov., and its type species (Loborrhizomyia phaneroectata sp. nov.) another aphanata are described from Caiyang River Nature Reserve, Pu?er, Yunnan, China. The is characterized in Brachineurini by unique gonostylus having a ventral lobe protruding to distal. taxonomic status two discussed with comparison between other related groups an updated key all known genera including provided.
The first record of the Ledomyiini genus Isogynandromyia Spungis in Oriental Region is given including one new species, zhengleyii sp. nov., described and illustrated from Jiulianshan, Jiangxi Province Southern China. generic diagnosis updated to include species with a detailed morphological description, key males all known also provided.http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:6D3A851B-BA78-4226-A3E6-8623DF786890
A new genus and species of the tribe Ledomyiini, Pseudocingola guanshanensis gen. & sp. nov. is described illustrated from Guan Mountain, Yifeng, Jiangxi, China. The characterised in Ledomyiini by ventral gonocoxal mediobasal lobe uniquely diverging away aedeagus except for base. taxonomic status discussed with a comparison between related genera an updated key to extant provided.http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:518789C2-D9F8-45F4-BDF9-65F29E888983
