Taxon Description

Phyllomyza equitans Hendel, 1919

Biology

Adults have been caught on on living Dolycoris baccharum L. bugs.
P. equitans has been reared from nests of Lasius fuliginosus ants, from nests of the hawk Buteo and the swallow Ardea cincera, and from dead wood of Fagus silvatica, Quercus robor and Populus tremula.

Phenology: May-September
In the Netherlands specimens were collected May-September in window and Malaise traps and in beer traps in oak trees at 4 m height.

Diagnostic Description

2-3 dc; ventral side of palpus setulose

Morphology

Original description:
Nun fing ich am 6. Juni in Bisamberg bei Wien auf einer lebenden Dolycoris baccarum L., der gemeinen Beerenwanze, eine kleine Fliege, die ich nach dieser Sitte und bei oberflächlicher Betrachtung für eine Desmometopa gehalten hatte, die sich aber als eine Phyllomyza-Art mit nur zwei hinteren dc-Borsten herausstellte. Als ich meine Sammlung daraufhin untersuchte fand ich noch ein zweites Stück dieser Art, ebenfalls 1 Weibchen, das ich im Juli in Freiheitsau bei Troppau gefangen hatte, sowie ein weitere Stück (Weibchen) einer zweiten neuen Art (P. melania), vom Unterberg in N.-Österreich, 16. Juni.
Bei beiden Arten sind jederseits nur zwei hintere dc-Borsten vorhanden und die Backen 2/3 des lotrechten Augendurchmessers hoch. Im übrigen gleichen sie ganz der bekannten Phyll. securicornis Fall., so dass ich mir ausführlichere Beschreibungen wenigstens vorläufig ersparen kann. ...
1. Thoraxrücken deutlich lehmfarbig überstäubt.
2. 3. und 4. Längsader des Flügels parallel, der Kostalabstand dazwischen nur etwas grösser als der zwischen der 2. und 3.
3. Hintere Querader wenig mehr als 1/2 des letzten Abschnittes des 5. Längsader lang.
4. Letzter Abschnitt der 4. Längsader dreimal so lang wie der vorletzte.
5. Apikale Schildchenborsten divergierend.
6. Arista ungefähr medial stehend, kaum zweimal so lang wie die Fühler (Weibchen).
7. Taster kürzer als der wagrechte Augendurchmesser.

The Milichiidae from 'De Kaaistoep', The Netherlands

Introduction

The Milichiidae fauna of the Netherlands is quite well known due to early collectors like De Meijere and currently activ collectors like Jan Willem van Zuijlen. In the checklist for the Netherlands (Beuk 2002) nine valid species are listed and two nomina dubia . The only recent paper on the milichiid fauna of the Netherlands is by Beuk & Brake (1996).
