    Life History of Two Fly Parasitoids, Aleochara nigra and A. formosanorum (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae), and Its Implications in Forensic Entomology

    在法醫昆蟲學中,估算死後間隔時間是很重要的一項議題,而以麗蠅為主的食屍性蠅類幼期的發育時間是目前估算死後間隔時間最主要的工具之一。許多寄生於雙翅目幼期的擬寄生者會影響寄主的發育,造成死後間隔時間估算的困難。在生活史已被了解的Aleochara屬隱翅蟲中,大部分種類的幼蟲皆為雙翅目環裂類蛹期的擬寄生者,成蟲則主要是蠅類卵及幼蟲的捕食者,其中寄生於食屍性雙翅目蛹期的種類則具備潛在的法醫重要性。我們以A. nigra 和 A. formosanorum這兩種分布於台灣的親屍性隱翅蟲為研究對象。於台灣北部進行之野外調查結果顯示此兩種隱翅蟲在台灣北部廣泛分布。兩種隱翅蟲皆有寄生受試的五種食屍性蠅類 (瘦葉帶綠蠅、銅綠蠅、大頭金蠅、紅顏金蠅、肉蠅的一種) 與一種非食屍性蠅類 (東方果實蠅) 的潛能,但在對不同寄主的接受度及適合度上有差異,顯示幼蟲可能有特定的合適寄主。我們記錄了這兩種隱翅蟲在三個不同溫度下的發育時間,以作為推估不同溫度下隱翅蟲發育時間的依據。這兩種隱翅蟲的幼蟲期加上蛹期的長度相較於數種寄主的蛹期皆較長,顯示它們具有延長可估算的死後間隔時間的潛力。而寄主重量與A. formosanorum 幼蟲期長度之間的正相關性,對於利用隱翅蟲又其發育時間來估算死後間隔時間,應具有其應用價值。The estimation of postmortem interval (PMI) is one of the most important issues in forensic entomology, and estimating the developmental time of the immature stages of necrophagous flies, especially blow flies, has been the main tool to estimate PMI. Many parasitic insects may alter the development of immature stages of flies, and thus affecting the PMI estimation. For most species of the rove beetle genus Aleochara which have been studied, their larvae are ectoparasitoids of the pupae of cyclorrhapha flies. Among them, some species that parasitize necrophagous flies may have forensic importance. I studied two Aleochara species in Taiwan that visit carrion site, A. nigra and A. formosanorum. The results of field survey conducted in northern Taiwan show that they are commonly found in northern Taiwan. All the five necrophagous (Hemipyrellia ligurriens, Lucilia cuprina, Chrysomya megacephala, C. rufifacies, sarcophagid sp.) and one non-necrophagous fly species (Bactrocera dorsalis) I examined have the potential to be parasitized by some individuals of these two Aleochara species, but differences among the acceptance and suitability of the rove beetle larvae to these host species suggest that rove beetles may prefer specific hosts. Each stage of their life history under 3 different temperatures has been recorded for estimating the developmental time under different temperatures. The larval stage together with the pupal stage of both species are longer than the pupal stages of their hosts, implying their potential usage of elongating the PMI estimation in forensic investigation. In addition, the host weight and the duration of the larval stage of A. formosanorum are positively correlated, thus it should be considered while applying the parasitized fly pupae in PMI estimation

    Oedothorax trilineatus SAITO 1934, INCERTAE

    ‘OEDOTHORAX’ TRILINEATUS SAITO, 1934 INCERTAE SEDIS Oedothorax trilineatus Saito, 1934: 311, pl. 13, fig. 18, pl. 15, fig. 61 (Df). Oedothorax trilineatus, Saito, 1959: 79, fig. 84a–c (f). Material: Japan: Nemuro, 4♀, leg. S. Motoda, 15.vii.1931, not examined. No type material was designated. Diagnosis: Females: This species can be distinguished by the black prosoma, the black opisthosoma with three oblique white markings at the sides, and the white/ black annulated legs and palps. Males: unknown Distribution: Japan: Nemuro. Remarks: According to Saito (1934), this species has prosoma and opisthosoma uniformly black in colour, and legs are white annulated with black, different from the yellow to dark-brown coloration of Oedothorax and Mitrager species. Furthermore, according to his description, three out of four specimens have leg II as the shortest leg, in comparison to leg III as the shortest leg in Linyphiidae in general. Therefore, this species is most likely not a linyphiid.Published as part of Lin, Shou-Wang, Lopardo, Lara & Uhl, Gabriele, 2022, Evolution of nuptial-gift-related male prosomal structures: taxonomic revision and cladistic analysis of the genus Oedothorax (Araneae: Linyphiidae: Erigoninae), pp. 417-584 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 195 on page 556, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlab033, http://zenodo.org/record/696777

    ‘ OEDOTHORAX ’ BANKSI STRAND, 1906 INCERTAE SEDIS Gongylidium sp. Banks, 1900: 480. Oedothorax banksi Strand, 1906: 445 (Df). Type material: Banks’ description (1900) was based on two females collected from Muir Glacier in 1899, but no type designation was mentioned. Diagnosis: Females: From original description in Banks (1900): ‘the epigynum is an elliptical area with a nearly square cavity in posterior part; on middle of hind margin is a denticle projecting forward’. Although difficult to comprehend the structure solely based on this description, the presence of a cavity in the posterior part of the epigye discriminates this species from all Oedothorax, Mitrager, Callitrichia species and their related genera, like Gongylidium and Timeticus. Males: Unknown. Distribution: USA, Alaska. Habitat: Glacier. Remarks: Due to the unavailability of type material and any images in the original descriptions of this species, the current status of this species is unclear.Published as part of Lin, Shou-Wang, Lopardo, Lara & Uhl, Gabriele, 2022, Evolution of nuptial-gift-related male prosomal structures: taxonomic revision and cladistic analysis of the genus Oedothorax (Araneae: Linyphiidae: Erigoninae), pp. 417-584 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 195 on page 541, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlab033, http://zenodo.org/record/696777

    ‘OEDOTHORAX’ UNCIGER TANASEVITCH, 2020 INCERTAE SEDIS Oedothorax unciger Tanasevitch, 2020b: 127, figs 1–3, 7–12 (Dm). Type material: Holotype: India: Meghalaya, Sohra, plateau, 1320 m a.s.l., ♂ 14–26.xii.2013, leg. K. P. Tomkovich (ZMMU). Paratype: 1♂ (ZMMU), together with holotype. Diagnosis: Males: This species is similar to many Oriental ‘ Oedothorax ’ species, but can be distinguished by its unique hook-shaped ventral radical process (see figs 8 and 12 in Tanasevitch 2020b). Females: unknown. Distribution: Only known from the type locality in India. Remarks: According to the drawings in Tanasevitch (2020), the embolic division of this species resembles those of ‘ Oe.’ kodaikanal, ‘ Oe.’ meghalaya, ‘ Oe.’ uncus, ‘ Oe.’ cunur, ‘ Oe.’ myanmar, ‘ Oe.’ sohra, ‘ Oe. ’ khasi, ‘ Oe. ’ bifoveatus and ‘ Oe.’ stylus and is, therefore, probably closely related to these species instead of Oedothorax s.s..Published as part of Lin, Shou-Wang, Lopardo, Lara & Uhl, Gabriele, 2022, Evolution of nuptial-gift-related male prosomal structures: taxonomic revision and cladistic analysis of the genus Oedothorax (Araneae: Linyphiidae: Erigoninae), pp. 417-584 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 195 on page 556, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlab033, http://zenodo.org/record/696777
