The enigmatic case of Lipoptena sp. in the Bosco della Mesola Nature Reserve (Italy)

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 82-90, March 2026.
This is the first report of Lipoptena andaluciensis in Italy, confirmed morphologically and genetically. The presence of L. andaluciensis in Italy dates back many years; it was found on cervids in lowland habitats. A re‐examination of the previous report of the Italian L. fortisetosa is needed.

Description of the larval stages of Gymnochthebius jensenhaarupi and phylogenetic analysis of the relationships with other species of the subfamily Ochthebiinae (Coleoptera: Hydraenidae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2005
The three larval instars of Gymnochthebius jensenhaarupi (Knisch, 1924) are described and illustrated, including a detailed analysis of their chaetotaxy and porotaxy. The specimens used in this study were collected with adults of G.

Phylogenomics and the evolution of larval feeding habits in the blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae)

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
Phylogenomic data from anchored hybrid enrichment provide a new phylogeny of Calliphoridae that delimits the family and confirms division into eight monophyletic subfamilies. Fossil‐calibrated divergence times place the origin of Calliphoridae in the mid‐Eocene (ca. 41 Mya) along with other rapidly radiating families of oestroid Diptera. Reconstruction

The revival of tribes: An analysis of Platystomatidae (Diptera, Tephritoidea) phylogeny based on external morphological traits

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
First comprehensive phylogenetic hypothesis for the fly family Platystomatidae, based on 194 morphological characters, confirming the monophyly of its four traditional subfamilies. Illustrations of the external and internal morphology of nearly all genera of Platystomatidae are presented here; in addition, a new genus, Trapheroplatystoma gen. nov., and

The Chaetotaxy of Cypridacea (Crustacea, Ostrocoda) Limbs: Proposals for a Descriptive Model [PDF]

Bijdragen tot de Dierkunde, 1982
The need for better and more systematic descriptions of the chaetotaxy (especially data concerning the shape, structure and pattern of distribution of the setae) is emphasized. The historical developments of studies in chaetotaxy are reviewed.

Phylogenomics of Anthomyiidae and a revised classification of Scathophagidae (Diptera: Calyptratae)

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
Family Anthomyiidae is revised using a broad sampling of genera, including the Neotropical Coenosopsia and Phaonantho, which are recovered as Coenosopsiinae Bailey & Michelsen (subfam. nov.). The former family Scathophagidae is recovered within the family Anthomyiidae with strong support and relegated to subfamily rank as Scathophaginae (stat.

The genus Eupodes Koch, 1835 (Acari: Prostigmata: Eupodidae) from southern African soil and vegetation. Part 1. Characterisation of the genus, designation of the type species and descriptions of three new species

Koedoe: African Protected Area Conservation and Science, 1997
Based on a study of the Eupodoidea of southern Africa, the genus Eupodes is redefined, with the incorporation of additional features, to distinguish it from other genera. E. striola Koch, 1835 is conceived as type species for the genus. Three new species,
