Crustacea: Copepoda - Cerambycoidea.com

Chymomyza fuscimana (Egger)* - Larvae develop in fermenting sap under bark, adults
usually being found at cut ends of fresh logs and freshly broken ends, eg ash, beech
and poplar.
Drosophila (Dorsilopha) busckii Coquillett* - Has been reared from rot-hole debris, as well
as woodland agarics, and decaying plant material generally, and the adult is attracted
to fruit. Widely distributed and cosmopolitan.
Drosophila (Drosophila) cameraria Haliday* - Polyphagous in decaying fungi and other
decaying materials, including Laetiporus sulphureus as well as many terrestrial fungi.
Drosophila (Drosophila) funebris (Fabricius) - Polyphagous in fungi including both wood
decay and terrestrial species.
Drosophila (Drosophila) histrio Duda - Polyphagous in fungi including some soft polypores:
Meripilus and Grifola.
Drosophila (Drosophila) immigrans Sturtevant* - Sap.
Drosophila (Drosophila) kuntzei Duda - Has been reared from Polyporus and Auricularia.
Drosophila (Drosophila) littoralis Meigen* - Has been reared from sap on a sycamore stump
in Midlothian.
Drosophila (Drosophila) phalerata Meigen* - Polyphagous in fungi including both wood
decay and terrestrial species.
Drosophila (Drosophila) transversa Fallén* - Polyphagous in fungi including both wood
decay (Polyporus & Ustulina recorded) and terrestrial species.
Drosophila (Hirtodrosophila) confusa Staeger - Adult flies have been taken on Polyporus
squamosus on elm, and at fresh Ganoderma: often seen at rest beneath Ganoderma
brackets among droplets of reddish moisture weeping from the spore-producing
surface.
Drosophila (Scaptodrosophila) deflexa Duda* - Associated with trees and shrubs in damp
situations.
Drosophila (Sophophora) obscura Fallén* - A widespread species, most often found in
broadleaved woodlands and parks. Larvae have been found beneath sappy bark with
yeast on elm and the fly has been reared from sappy stumps of Salix and sycamore
sap. The fly is attracted to a wide range of sweet and decaying substances.
Drosophila (Sophophora) subobscura Collin* - The natural breeding media are tree sap and
fungus, but it has also been reared from diseased Iris root and fermenting oak galls of
Biorrhiza pallida. Adults are attracted to a wide range of sweet and decaying
materials. Common and widespread throughout Britain, in open as well as wooded
country.
Drosophila (Sophophora) subsilvestris Hardy & Kaneshiro* = silvestris Basden -
Discovered, new to Science, in Scotland in 1951, but earlier material has subsequently
been found in collections. Also in England & Ireland. Only found near trees and
bushes, in woods, plantations, copses and occasionally in hedgerows, but most
abundantly in broadleaved woodland.
Drosophila (Sophophora) tristis Fallén* - Most often found in woodland and parkland, but
also in unwooded terrain. It is attracted to a variety of tree saps and also decaying
fruit. Uncommon.
Amiota albilabris (Roth) - RDB2. Biology unrecorded, possibly similar habits to other
members of genus. Only known from three localities.
Amiota alboguttata (Wahlberg) - Nationally Scarce. Mainly a tree top species, the adults
attracted to sap and decaying timber. Larvae have been reared from the gelatinous
contents of atypical stromata of the fungus Daldinia concentrica growing on birch,
alder, beech, oak, etc, (although strangely not reported from ash, which most
commonly has Daldinia) and also D. vernicosa on gorse.
