Black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) of French Guiana: cytotaxonomy and a preliminary list of species.
The objectives of the present study were to broaden the survey of simuliid species in French Guiana and to cytologically analyze the species in the Simulium perflavum species group. Twelve species of Simulium were collected from which S. goeldii, S. quadrifidum, S. trombetense, S. near incrustatum, S. metallicum (s.l.) sp1, S. metallicum (s.l.) sp2 and S. ochraceum (s.l.) are reported for the f...
متن کاملThe Black Flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) of Iran.
Although Iran has a large geographic area encompassing 13 ecoregions, its simuliid fauna remains largely unexplored. To begin redressing this faunal gap, we reviewed literature records and coupled morphological and chromosomal identifications of material newly collected from 16 sites in Iran. Twenty-three nominal species are now recognized, including new country records for Simulium crassicaulu...
متن کاملParasites of larval black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) in Thailand
Parasites of larval black flies are reported for the first time from Thailand, including mermithid nematodes (Mermithidae), microsporidian fungi (Zygomycota), and the fungus Coelomycidium simulii Debaisieux (Blastocladiomycetes). The following nine species of black flies were infected with one or more parasites: Simulium asakoae, S. chamlongi, S. chiangmaiense, S. fenestratum, S. feuerborni, S....
متن کاملGender-specific bacterial composition of black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae).
Although hematophagous black flies are well-known socioeconomic pests and vectors of disease agents, their associated bacteria are poorly known. A systematic analysis of the bacterial community associated with freshly emerged adult black flies of four North American species, using cultivation-independent molecular techniques, revealed 75 nonsingleton bacterial phylotypes. Although 17 cosmopolit...
متن کاملCytotaxonomy of the Simuliidae (Diptera): a systematic and bibliographic conspectus.
An annotated compilation of all chromosomal works (cytoconspectus) on the Simuliidae is presented, covering 577 species including 541 formally named species-24.8% of the world's extant nominal species-and 36 formally unnamed species. The first published record of polytene chromosomes in a simuliid appeared in 1919, followed by an imposing body of chromosomal research, most notably since 1956. T...
