Shore Flies (Insecta: Diptera: Ephydridae) of Plummers Island, Maryland

Bulletin of the Biological Society of Washington, 2008
ABSTRACT Twenty-nine species of shore flies in 17 genera have been collected and identified from Plummers Island. Although relatively diverse, the shore-fly fauna known from the Island represents only 21% of the species known from the surrounding states, indicating that we probably are dealing with sampling error and that many more species are likely ...

Habitat Characteristics and the Diversity Patterns of Shore Flies (Diptera: Ephydridae)

Freshwater Invertebrate Biology, 1982
A generalized relationship between the basic characteristics of shore fly habitats and the spatial patterns of the habitats' species diversity (H'), richness and evenness was derived using linear step-wise multiple regression. We postulated that there are 13 basic characteristics of all ephydrid habitats and that these characteristics are important in ...

Biology of Shore Flies

Annual Review of Entomology, 1995
Information is given on the habitat distribution, larval feeding habits, and economic roles of the dipterous family Ephydridae. This family has broad ecological tolerances and is commonly encountered in such physiologically stressful habitats as oil pools, inland alkaline and saline marshes, hot springs, and cold thermal springs, and coastal salt ...

Major Lineages of Shore Flies (Diptera: Ephydridae) and the Resultant Subfamilial Classification

Annales Zoologici, 2023
Apomorphies of the family Ephydridae and its monophyly are discussed. Revised interpretation of the male terminalia is proposed and the variability of adult proboscis is presented. Apomorphies of adults mouthparts are resulted from adaptations to microphagy, mining or algal consumption and well reflect relations among major clades.

Shore Flies of the Galápagos Islands (Diptera: Ephydridae)

Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1995
Fifteen species of shore flies, nearly doubling the number of known fauna, are reported from the Galapagos Islands. Of the 15 species, all but 2 are widespread in the Neotropics and apparently arrived on the Galapagos as introductions, which were probably independent events.

New Species and Taxonomic Clarifications for Shore Flies from the Delmarva States (Diptera: Ephydridae)

Proceedings of the Entomological Society of Washington, 2010
Abstract New species of shore flies (Diptera: Ephydridae) from the Delmarva States are described, and taxonomic clarifications are made. The six new species are (type locality in parentheses): Discocerina delmarva (Virginia. Stafford: Aquia Harbour, Lions Park), Hydrochasma aquia (Virginia. Stafford: Aquia Harbour, Lions Park), Hydrochasma avanae (Utah.
