Bradysiopsis dearmata Vilkamaa & Menzel 2019, comb. n.
No full textBradysiopsis dearmata (Mohrig & Krivosheina, 1987) comb. n. Literature. Lycoriella (Hemineurina) dearmata Mohrig & Krivosheina—Mohrig et al. (1987): 94, fig. 4 a–d; Menzel et al. (1990): 335; Menzel & Mohrig (1991): 40; Menzel & Mohrig (2000): 382, 385; Komarov (2009): 100, 103. Discussion. Lycoriella (Hemineurina) dearmata Mohrig & Krivosheina, 1987 is known only from a few specimens from Russia, Tuva and Altai Republics and Germany, Schleswig-Holstein (Heller 2004) and Thuringia, Saxonia (unpublished). The species was placed in the L. vitticollis group by Menzel & Mohrig (2000) but is exceptional in having a narrow gonostylus, medially not impressed, with a group of subapical megasetae and 2–3 medial elongated setae, and in having a peculiar intergonocoxal lobe of the hypopygium with unusually strong setae. Mohrig et al. (1987: 94) and Menzel & Mohrig (2000: 382) showed that the placement of L. dearmata in the L. vitticollis group of Lycoriella (Hemineurina) was somewhat problematic. The sensillar patch of the 1 st palpal segment is distinctly bordered (not deepened and pit-like), the wing vein R 5 are apically both dorsally and ventrally setose, the scutellum has 4 long and strong setae, the fore tibia has weak spinose setae [1–3 setae in the basic vestiture], the legs are long and thick, the fore tibial organ has fine and dense setosity and bow-like borders, and the tarsal claws are untoothed. It is striking that that the setosity of mesonotum and abdomen is, unlike the species of Lycoriella, Hemineurina und Trichocoelina, dark brown and much longer and dense. Furthermore, the species has a slender, not impressed gonostylus (without medial margin), 2 or 3 elongated and nearly straight setae on its apical half (not homologous with the apically curved whiplash seta of Lycoriella s. l.) and a slender apical tooth and 2 to 3 strong and nearly straight subapical megasetae. These characters support the view that L. dearmata is closer to the species of Bradysiopsis than to the here proposed genera Hemineurina and Trichocoelina (compare here with, for example, Bradysiopsis vittigera (Zetterstedt, 1851) in Menzel & Mohrig (2000: 189, fig. 159) and Bradysiopsis sordida (Mohrig, 1999) comb. n. (see below). The two, very closely placed intergonocoxal lobes of L. dearmata are in no case homologous with with the intergonocoxal lobes of Lycoriella s. str., Hemineurina or Trichocoelina, because at the base they are united with the intergonocoxal area by a strongly sclerotized bridge. Based on the above characters, Lycoriella (Hemineurina) dearmata Mohrig & Krivosheina is transferred to Bradysiopsis Tuomikoski.Published as part of Vilkamaa, Pekka & Menzel, Frank, 2019, Re-classification of Lycoriella Frey sensu lato (Diptera, Sciaridae), with description of Trichocoelina gen. n. and twenty new species, pp. 1-67 in Zootaxa 4665 (1) on page 7, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4665.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/400055
Merizomma codonopsivora Vilkamaa & Menzel 2019
No full textMerizomma codonopsivora (Sasakawa, 1997) stat. et comb. n. Literature. Lycoriella (Chorizomma) codonopsivora Sasakawa—Sasakawa (1997): 171, figs 1–3. Lycoriella (Merizomma) codonopsivora Sasakawa—Sasakawa (2003): 119, 128. Lycoriella codonopsivora Sasakawa—Sasakawa (2008): 128; Eiseman et al. (2016): 527. Discussion. Sasakawa (1997: 171) described the distinctive Lycoriella codonopsivora Sasakawa, 1997 from Hokkaido (Japan) whose larvae feed on deodeok leaves (Codonopsis lanceolata, Campanulaceae). For this species, he erected the monotypic subgenus Chorizomma of Lycoriella (Sasakawa 1997: 174 [preocc., not Chorizomma Simon, 1872; Araneae, Dictynidae] and renamed the subgenus later as Merizomma (Sasakawa 2003: 119, 128). The subgenus and the type species are not included in the monograph of the Palaearctic Sciaridae (Menzel & Mohrig 2000). Therefore, these taxa are discussed here in detail on the basis of the original descriptions by Sasakawa (1997) and included in the identification key and in the checklist. Lycoriella codonopsivora Sasakawa, 1997 has characters which are not present in this combination in any other genus and which distinctly differ from those given to Lycoriella s. l. by Menzel & Mohrig (2000: 377): Eye bridge not united at middle, without ommatidia; maxillary palpus 2-segmented, without pit of sensilla on 1 st segment; scutellum without long lateral setae, only with two unregular rows of short setae; R 1 longer than R, ending beyond the base of M-fork; fore tibia with small, bow-like bordered tibial organ; tarsal claws untoothed; hypopygium with wide gonocoxa; gonocoxae united in v-form and with short setae, intergonocoxal area not modified, gonostylus elongate-triangular and with apical megaseta, without apical tooth; medial side of gonostylus without megasetae and at apical half strongly impressed; basal part [at 1/5 of the medial side of gonostylus] with long, upcurved seta on long basal body; tegmen roundish, without apical or lateral modifications. On the basis of the above characters, L. codonopsivora Sasakawa must be excluded from the Lycoriella group. With its short gonocoxa, lacking intergonocoxal lobe and apical megaseta, the species resembles some species of the K. nepalensis group of Keilbachia Mohrig, 1987 [compare here Menzel & Martens (1995: 107), Menzel & Mohrig (2000: 348), Vilkamaa et al. (2006: 40) and Vilkamaa et al. (2009: 3)]. However, a strongly reduced eye bridge, a 2-segmented palpus, an unbordered patch of sensilla on 1 st segment of palpus, a long R 1 and the lack of a spiral-formed megaseta on the medial side of gonostylus differ from the characters of Keilbachia. These characters are typical for the M. hippai group of the genus Mohrigia Menzel, 1995. Speaking against the combination of L. codonopsivora Sasakawa with Mohrigia are the Keilbachia -like form of the gonostylus, the missing long medial setae on the apical half of the gonostylus, the missing intergonocoxal lobe of hypopygium and the much smaller, weakly setose fore tibial organ [compare here Menzel & Martens (1995: 102), Menzel & Mohrig (2000: 415) and Rudzinski (2006: 450)]. Furthermore, neither Keilbachia nor Mohrigia have the lateral setae of scutellum reduced [both have two long and strong setae] nor an unmodified tegmen [the tegmen of Mohrigia has a straight, strongly sclerotized dorsomedial structure; the tegmen of Keilbachia is sclerotized laterally and often with a narrow apical process]. On the above grounds, Merizomma Sasakawa, 2003 stat. n. with the type species Merizomma codonopsivora (Sasakawa, 1997) comb. n. is raised to generic rank and excluded from the Lycoriella group sensu Menzel & Mohrig (2000).Published as part of Vilkamaa, Pekka & Menzel, Frank, 2019, Re-classification of Lycoriella Frey sensu lato (Diptera, Sciaridae), with description of Trichocoelina gen. n. and twenty new species, pp. 1-67 in Zootaxa 4665 (1) on page 8, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4665.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/400055

Camptochaeta complexa Vilkamaa & Menzel 2019, comb. n.
No full textCamptochaeta complexa (Rudzinski & Baumjohann, 2009) comb. n. Literature. Lycoriella complexa Rudzinski & Baumjohann—Rudzinski & Baumjohann (2009): 216, figs 20–22. Discussion. Lycoriella complexa was described based on one male from Spain (Rudzinski & Baumjohann 2009). We have not seen the holotype, but based on the description we exclude it from Lycoriella and transfer it to Camptochaeta Hippa & Vilkamaa, 2004. The single bristle on the first palpal segment, the sclerotized tegmen, the impressed gonostylus (in the original description the impression shown as a dotted line), the strong gonostylar megasetae in the apical half, three of which on the dorsal (apical) side of the apical tooth and the two moderately long elongated setae on the apical third of the gonostylus differ from the characters of Lycoriella s. str. and fit better with Camptochaeta. By these characters, Camptochaeta complexa (Rudzinski & Baumjohann, 2009) comb. n. resembles Cam. subcamptochaeta (Mohrig, 1992) [= Cam. pentacantha Komarova, Hippa & Vilkamaa, 2007]. It is possible that these species are even synonymous [compare the descriptions and figures in Mohrig & Eckert (1992: 295, fig. 1 a–e) and Komarova et al. (2007: 7, figs 1–5)].Published as part of Vilkamaa, Pekka & Menzel, Frank, 2019, Re-classification of Lycoriella Frey sensu lato (Diptera, Sciaridae), with description of Trichocoelina gen. n. and twenty new species, pp. 1-67 in Zootaxa 4665 (1) on page 7, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4665.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/400055

BIN. BOLD:ABA5288. Discussion. The species was described from one female from Novaya Zemlya by Holmgren (1883) and later described again based on some males and females from Greenland as Sciara glacialis (Lundbeck 1898) and from Spitsbergen as Sciara permutata (Lundbeck 1900). The species was redescribed with a list of literature, synonyms and combinations by Menzel & Mohrig (2000). Trichocoelina vitticollis (Holmgren) can be distinguished from all other species of the genus by its very large, setose intergonocoxal lobe of hypopygium and in having the gonostylus with a group of slender, oblique medial megasetae.

BIN. BOLD:ABA5288. Discussion. The species was described from one female from Novaya Zemlya by Holmgren (1883) and later described again based on some males and females from Greenland as Sciara glacialis (Lundbeck 1898) and from Spitsbergen as Sciara permutata (Lundbeck 1900). The species was redescribed with a list of literature, synonyms and combinations by Menzel & Mohrig (2000). Trichocoelina vitticollis (Holmgren) can be distinguished from all other species of the genus by its very large, setose intergonocoxal lobe of hypopygium and in having the gonostylus with a group of slender, oblique medial megasetae.

Lycoriella excavata Menzel & Vilkamaa 2021, sp. n.
No full textLycoriella excavata sp. n. Figs 2B, 3D, 12B Material studied. Holotype male. USA, Colorado, Laramer Co., Pinewood Springs, 40.2677°N, 105.3678°W, Malaise trap, 26.VII–7.IX.2014, S. & B. Fitzgerald (in MZH, http://id.luomus.fi/GE.1811). Description. Male. Head. Face and antenna concolorous brown, maxillary palpus pale brown. Eye bridge 1–2 facets wide. Face with 27 setae. Clypeus with 1 seta. Maxillary palpus with 3 segments, 1 st segment longer than 3 rd segment, 2 nd segment shortest; 1 st segment with 3 setae, with deep dorsal pit with sensilla; surface of antennal flagellomeres smooth, body of 4 th antennal flagellomere 2.8x as long as wide, neck slightly longer than wide, longest setae longer than width of flagellomere. Thorax. Brown; setae pale. Anterior pronotum with 9 setae. Proepisternum with 10 setae. Scutellum with 2 moderately long and some short and fine setae. Wing. Fumose. Length 1.9 mm. Width/length 0.40. Anal lobe small. Veins distinct, except for stM. c/w 0.65. R1/R 0.75. stM longer than fork of M. bM as long as r-m, stCuA shortest. bM and r-m non-setose. Halter yellow. Legs. Pale brown; setae pale. Fore tibial organ forming large patch of setae in demarcated depression. Fore tibial spur longer than apical width of tibia. Abdomen. Pale brown; setae pale, short and weak. Hypopygium (Fig. 2B). Brown, like abdomen. Intergonocoxal area moderately long, with semicircular setose lobe. Gonocoxa narrow and long, longer than gonostylus, with sparse, rather short setosity. Gonostylus (Fig. 3D) widest subapically, slightly narrowed towards apex, deeply excavated dorsally; densely setose apically, with long and narrow apical tooth, with 1 subapical and 7–8 medial megasetae on ventral margin of apical half of gonostylus; with long whip-lash seta in middle. Tegmen (Fig. 12B) longer than wide, slightly notched apically, weakly sclerotized laterally, with area of minute teeth apicoventrally, with area of small aedeagal teeth. Aedeagal apodeme moderately long. BIN. Unknown. Discussion. Lycoriella excavata sp. n. with its subapically widened, lobe-shaped gonostyli resembles Lycoriella piristylata Vilkamaa, Hippa & Heller, 2013, which has (in contrast to the original description) also a palpal sensory pit and therefore belongs to Lycoriella Frey. In contrast to Lycoriella excavata sp. n., in L. piristylata a long whiplash seta is missing, the intercoxal lobe is small (or absent in some specimens), the apical tooth is significantly shorter or completely reduced and the tegmen is short and trapezoidal (Vilkamaa et al. 2013: fig. 3A–C). Lycoriella excavata sp. n. (Fig. 2B) also differs from this species in its ventrally enlarged lobe-shaped gonostylus with a very deep dorsal excavation, all medial megasetae of the gonostylus on its ventral margin, and its tegmen with apicolateral teeth. Apicolateral teeth of the tegmen are currently known only in Lycoriella taimyrensis described here (Fig. 13E), in some species of angustostylata species group in Bradysia Winnertz, 1867 (Menzel & Heller 2005; Mohrig 2016), as well in Odontosciara Rübsaamen, 1908 (Mohrig 2003). Etymology. The name is a Latin adjective, excavata, meaning hollowed, and refers to the strongly hollowed gonostylus.Published as part of Menzel, Frank & Vilkamaa, Pekka, 2021, New species and records of Lycoriella Frey (Diptera, Sciaridae) from the Holarctic region, pp. 501-530 in Zootaxa 5072 (6) on pages 509-510, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5072.6.1, http://zenodo.org/record/575154
