Two new species of Limonia Meigen, 1803 from Northwest China (Diptera, Limoniidae)

ABSTRACT: Abstract Two new species of Limonia Meigen, 1803, Limoniamedexochasp. nov. and Limoniasubcostasp. nov. are described and illustrated from Northwest China. The following five species are re-described and reported from China for the first time: L.macrostigma (Schummel, 1829), L.phragmitidis (Schrank, 1781), L.stigma (Meigen, 1818), L.sylvicola (Schummel, 1829) and L.taurica (Strobl, 1895). A key to adult males of Limonia from Northwest China is presented.

New species of the genus Ptychoptera Meigen, 1803 (Diptera, Ptychopteridae) from Zhejiang, China with an updated key to Chinese species.

Project description:We revise the taxonomy of the genus Ptychoptera Meigen, 1803 from Zhejiang, East China. One new species from Zhejiang, P.tianmushana sp. nov., is described and illustrated. Morphologically, the new species is most similar to P.emeica Kang, Xue & Zhang, 2019 and P.formosensis Alexander, 1924, but it can be distinguished by the coloration of the abdomen and the details of the male genitalia. In addition, P.bellula Alexander, 1937 is recorded from Zhejiang for the first time. Two known species from Zhejiang, P.longwangshana Yang & Chen, 1998 and P.gutianshana Yang & Chen, 1995, are redescribed and illustrated. A key to Chinese species of Ptychoptera is provided.

A review of the subgenus Loxocera Meigen, 1803 (Diptera, Brachycera, Psilidae) in China.

Project description:The subgenus Loxocera (Loxocera Meigen, 1803) (Diptera, Brachycera, Psilidae) in China is reviewed. Six species are recognized, including four new species: L. (L.) chikunisp. nov., L. (L.) lonsdaleisp. nov., L. (L.) maculithoraxsp. nov., and L. (L.) obscurasp. nov.

Review of the Genus Sciara Meigen, 1803 (Diptera, Sciaridae) in Ukraine.

Project description:On the territory of Ukraine during the field seasons 2015-2022, we collected eight Sciara species-S. analis Schiner, 1864, S. flavimana Zetterstedt, 1851, S. hebes (Loew, 1869), S. helvola Winnertz, 1867, S. hemerobioides (Scopoli, 1763), S. humeralis Zetterstedt, 1851, S. incerta Winnertz, 1867 and S. ruficauda Meigen, 1818. All specimens are kept in the collections of the Schmalhausen Institute of Zoology NAS of Ukraine (SIZK). According to the results of our research, the four species S. flavimana, S. hebes, S. helvola and S. incerta are being registered for the first time in Ukraine. New localities are given for S. analis, S. hemerobioides, S. humeralis and S. ruficauda. The distribution, morphological peculiarities, ecology and phenology of registered species are also briefly discussed. A key to 12 European Sciara species is given.

One new species of the subgenus Hexatoma (Eriocera) Macquart (Diptera, Limoniidae) from China with a key to Chinese species.

Project description:One new species of the subgenus Eriocera Macquart, 1838, Hexatoma (Eriocera) cleopatroides Men, sp. n. (Southern China: Anhui) is described and illustrated. A key to all of 78 known species from China in the subgenus is provided, which was solely based on literatures. The new species is similar to Hexatoma (Eriocera) cleopatra Alexander, 1933, but distinguishes from the latter by the prescutum entirely black with two ill-defined gray stripes, by the legs with fore and middle femora brown in basal half, black in apical half, with hind femora brown in basal one-fourth, and by the wings with cells c and sc more yellowish brown than the ground color.
