The mitochondrial genome of Nephrotoma Tenuipes (Diptera Tipulidae).

ABSTRACT: The crane fly Nephrotoma tenuipes belongs to family Tipulidae. The mitogenome of N. tenuipes was sequenced, the new representative of the mitogenome of the family Tipulidae. The nearly complete mitogenome is 14,851?bp totally, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs and 22 transfer RNAs. All genes have the similar locations and strands with that of other published species of Tipulidae. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T, which together made up 76.04?of the entirety. Bayesian inference analysis strongly supported the monophyly of Tipuloidea. It suggested that the phylogenetic relationship within Tipuloidea is Pediciidae?+?(Limoniidae?+?(Tipulidae?+?Cylindrotomidae)).

Tanyptera (Tanyptera) hebeiensis Yang et Yang (Diptera: Tipulidae) newly recorded from Shandong, China: sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of the mitochondrial genome.

Project description:The genus Tanyptera Latreille, 1804 is recorded from Shandong Province, China for the first time with T. (T.) hebeiensis Yang et Yang, 1988 found in Mount Kunyu, Shandong. In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of T. (T.) hebeiensis, representing the first mitochondrial genome of the subfamily Ctenophorinae (Diptera: Tipulidae), which is a circular molecule of 15,888 bp with an AT content of 77.6%. The mitochondrial genome contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), and a non-coding region. Gene overlaps are found at nine gene junctions, ranging from 1 to 8 bp in length. The canonical mitochondrial start codons for invertebrate mitochondrial genomes are found in 12 PCGs, except for COI which uses the uncanonical start codons TCG. Stop codons of 10 PCGs are invariably complete TAA and TAG, while COII, ND4, and ND5 end with a single thymine stop codon. Phylogenetic analysis reveals that the Pediciidae is a sister group to the remaining Tipuloidea, the Cylindrotomidae has a sister-group relationship with the Tipulidae, and the Limoniidae is not a monophyletic clade.

The InBIO Barcoding Initiative Database: DNA barcodes of Portuguese Diptera 02 - Limoniidae, Pediciidae and Tipulidae.

Project description:BackgroundThe InBIO Barcoding Initiative (IBI) Diptera 02 dataset contains records of 412 crane fly specimens belonging to the Diptera families: Limoniidae, Pediciidae and Tipulidae. This dataset is the second release by IBI on Diptera and it greatly increases the knowledge on the DNA barcodes and distribution of crane flies from Portugal. All specimens were collected in Portugal, including six specimens from the Azores and Madeira archipelagos. Sampling took place from 2003 to 2019. Specimens have been morphologically identified to species level by taxonomists and belong to 83 species in total. The species, represented in this dataset, correspond to about 55% of all the crane fly species known from Portugal and 22% of crane fly species known from the Iberian Peninsula. All DNA extractions and most specimens are deposited in the IBI collection at CIBIO, Research Center in Biodiversity and Genetic Resources.New informationFifty-three species were new additions to the Barcode of Life Data System (BOLD), with another 18 species' barcodes added from under-represented species in BOLD. Furthermore, the submitted sequences were found to cluster in 88 BINs, 54 of which were new to BOLD. All specimens have their DNA barcodes publicly accessible through BOLD online database and its collection data can be accessed through the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF). One species, Gonomyiatenella (Limoniidae), is recorded for the first time from Portugal, raising the number of crane flies recorded in the country to 145 species.

Description and DNA barcoding of Tipula ( Pterelachisus) recondita sp. n. from the Palaearctic region (Diptera, Tipulidae).

Project description:Tipula (Pterelachisus) recondita Pilipenko & Salmela, sp. n. is described. The new species is collected from two localities: Finland, Kittilä (North boreal ecoregion) and Russia, Primorski kray (Zone of temperate broadleaf and mixed forests). Although variation in the structure of male hypopygium between the Finnish and Russian populations is observed, DNA barcode sequences differ only by three nucleotides (0.2 % K2P distance), supporting presence of one widespread species. K2P minimum distances between the new species and 17 other species of the subgenus range from 5.3 to 15.8 % (mean 8.8 %). The new species is forest-dwelling, known from an old-growth herb-rich forest (Finland) and Quercus mongolica forest (Russia). The new species is perhaps closest to Tipula (Pterelachisus) imitator Alexander and in lesser extent to Tipula (Pterelachisus) pauli Mannheims; the inner gonostylus of both species are illustrated.

The mitochondrial genome of Oreogeton sp. (Diptera: Empididae).

Project description:The dance fly Oreogeton sp. belongs to the subfamily Oreogetoninae of Empididae. The mitogenome of Oreogeton sp. (GenBank accession number: MK639348) was sequenced, the first representative of the mitogenome of the subfamily. The nearly complete mitogenome is 15,718?bp totally, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNAs, and 22 transfer RNAs. All genes have the similar locations and strands with that of other published species of Empididae. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T, which together made up 77.2?of the entirety. Bayesian inference analysis strongly supported the monophyly of Empidoidea, Empididae, and Dolichopodidae. This result also suggested that Oreogetoninae was assigned to the sister group to the clade that consists of Trichopezinae and Clinocerinae, and then Empidinae is the sister to the clade that contains Oreogetoninae, Trichopezinae, and Clinocerinae.

The mitochondrial genome of Suillia sp. (Diptera: Heleomyzidae).

Project description:The mitogenome of Suillia sp. was sequenced as the first representative of the family Heleomyzidae. The mitogenome is 15,660?bp totally, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, and 22 transfer RNAs. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T is 75.1? of the entirety. All PCGs start with ATN codons except COI and ND1 and end with TAA or incomplete stop codon. Phylogenetic analyses based on 9 dipteran species supported the relationship of Opomyzoidea + (Ephydroidea + (Lauxanioidea + (Sciomyzoidea + (Sphaeroceroidea?+?Tephritoidea)))).

The mitochondrial genome of Formicosepsis sp. (Diptera: Cypselosomatidae).

Project description:The mitochondrial genome of Formicosepsis sp. was sequenced and annotated as the first representative of family Cypselosomatidae and superfamily Nerioidea. The part mitochondrial genome of Formicosepsis sp. is 15,144?bp totally, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNAs, and 22 transfer RNAs, which has a similar gene structure with other published species of Diptera. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T is 76.4% of the entirety. IQ-tree analysis revealed that the outgroups Anopheles oryzalimnetes and Simulium variegatum diverged from the rest. The Nerioidea represented by Formicosepsis sp. was sister group to Opomyzoidea. The Sciomyzoidea consisting of Sciomyzidae and Sepsidae is a monophyletic clade at the base of Acalyptratae.
