Holotype, female, Tajikistan, Gissar ridge, valley of Varzob river, Kondara ravine, 1100 m, 24.06. 1937 (leg. Gussakovsky). Diagnosis. Large size, largely reddish orange frons, moderately broad epistoma and long last section of vein M 3 + 4 are distinctive combination of characters of the new species in the Palaearctic fauna. There are some Nearctic Phytobia species [amelanchieris (Green), betulivora Spencer, pruinosa (Coquillett), setosa (Loew)] having at least partly light colored frons. In these species the shape of distiphallus is enough uniform. The distiphallus consists of a pair of long, slender, entirely separated from each other tubules. I propose to call these species as setosa -group after the oldest name. The new species very closely resembles Holarctic Phytobia betulivora Spencer (1969) which larva feeds on Betula nigra. Originally this species was described from the USA and Canada. Recently two males of P. betulivora were recorded from the Czech Republic (Č erny, 2001; Č erny, Vála, Barták, 2001). The unique distinctive external character of P. b e t u l i v o r a is conspicuous epistoma, extending upwards almost to base of antennae. Also one female reared ex Fraxinus from Ottawa resembles P. betulivora in the orange color of the frons, antennae and palps but the face and legs are black and the epistoma lacks the upwards extension (Spencer, 1969: 105) but until now its species identity remains uncertain. Almost certainly that P. pseudobetulivora. belongs to the setosa -group and its distiphallus of the same type. Despite of the structure of male genitalia is not known I believe that P. betulivora Spencer and P. pseudobetulivora sp.n. are represent the separate species because the shape of epistoma is not subject of significant individual variation or sexual dimorphism.Published as part of Zlobin, Vladimir V., 2008, Review of mining flies of the genus Phytobia Lioy (Diptera: Agromyzidae): Western Palearctic species, pp. 61-66 in Zootaxa 1725 on pages 61-63, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18121
Nb3Sn Accelerator Magnets: The Early Days (1960s–1980s)
No full textSince Nb3Sn became available in the form of relatively long tapes in the early 1960s, it was considered for high-field magnets thanks to its high upper critical magnetic field and critical temperature. This chapter is a review of the effort accomplished by the community in the first 25 years of development of Nb3Sn accelerator magnets, and an attempt to understand why it took so long before this technology became successful

New to Russia (North and Central European Territories, East Siberia). Remarks. Dr. M. von Tschirnhaus (1992) established synonymy of Phytobia betulae (Kangas, 1935) with P. c a m b i i (Hendel, 1931). Sasakawa (1994) recorded P. betulae from Japan and in fact he re-surrected this name from synonymy. I reject this proposal because Tschirnhaus’s opinion is based on rearing experiments (Tschirnhaus, personal communication).Published as part of Zlobin, Vladimir V., 2008, Review of mining flies of the genus Phytobia Lioy (Diptera: Agromyzidae): Western Palearctic species, pp. 61-66 in Zootaxa 1725 on page 63, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18121

Phytobia errans Meigen
No full textPhytobia errans (Meigen) Spencer, 1969: 101. Agromyza errans Meigen (1830) is a type-species of the genus Phytobia Lioy designated by monotypy. In original description of A. errans, the type-locality was not given but probably the species was collected near Aachen (Germany) (Papp, 1984: 281). After the original description no information about type material of the Agr. errans have been published and all attempts to find the type specimen were failed (Spencer’s letter communication). In collection of the Zoological Institute (St.Petersburg) there is one male specimen which can be tentatively refers to type specimen. It bears two labels: “ Agromyza errans ” written by Meigen’s hand, and “Meigen det., Brandt Collection”. The specimen is in good condition and its external morphology and structure of male terminalia is completely coincides with the species definition developed by Hendel (1920; 1931), Spencer (1971) and Tschirnhaus (2000). Therefore I propose to designate the specimen mentioned above as neotype.Published as part of Zlobin, Vladimir V., 2008, Review of mining flies of the genus Phytobia Lioy (Diptera: Agromyzidae): Western Palearctic species, pp. 61-66 in Zootaxa 1725 on page 64, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18121
