Composition of Necrophagous Insect Assemblages in Altitudinal Gradient of Central Chile [PDF]
InsectsThis study evaluated whether necrophagous arthropod assemblages, with emphasis on Calliphoridae (Diptera), differ among three sites in central Chile: Coastal (50 masl), Pre-mountain range (1000 masl), and High Andean (1800 masl).

Laboratory Evaluation of Pupal Parasitoids for Control of the Cornsilk Fly Species, Chaetopsis massyla and Euxesta eluta [PDF]
Insects, 2022 Cornsilk flies are serious pests of sweet corn through damage to cobs and secondary fungal establishment. As pupae are generally outside the infested cob on the ground, there can be potential for use of pupal parasitoids for control.

Two new species of the genus Timia and a redescription of Timia mongolica (Diptera, Ulidiidae) [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2016 Two new species of the genus Timia Wiedemann, 1824 are described and illustrated. Timia lazebnayae sp. n. from Uzbekistan has yellow body and is similar to Timia gobica Zaitzev, 1982, differing from it only by the entirely yellow flagellomere 1.

Sex-biased captures of sarcosaprophagous Diptera in carrion-baited traps. [PDF]
J Insect Sci, 2013 The use of carrion-baited traps is a common and widely extended practice in the study of sarcosaprophagous Diptera. However, it implies different areas of bias, one of them being the different responses of males and females to carrion bait, which results

The evolution of marine dwelling in Diptera. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2021 Highlights of the marine fly tree of life show several independent transitions to the marine environment. The distribution of marine‐dwelling Diptera has challenged the notion that marine flies are a rare phenomenon. Multiple mechanisms for adapting to the marine conditions are likely at play.

Identity of Species Assigned to the Genus Cephalia (Diptera, Tephritoidea)
Zoodiversity, 2022 The taxonomy of the genus Cephalia Meigen, 1826 has hitherto been confused. This paper comprises a review of the 13 nominal species assigned to the genus Cephalia to date. Of these, C. nigripes Meigen, 1826 has previously been considered a junior synonym

Study of Mitogenomes Provides Implications for the Phylogenetics and Evolution of the Infraorder Muscomorpha in Diptera. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study comparatively analyzed the mitogenome characteristics of 131 species that represent 18 superfamilies in Muscomorpha, in which mitogenomes of 16 species are newly sequenced and annotated herein. Further, we deduced their phylogenetics using maximum likelihood, and discussed their divergence time and evolution combined with taxonomy and ...
