6th International Congress of DipterologyFlesh fly phylogeny - more meat to the bonePape, T. (1), N.K. Sujatha (2), K. Szpila (3), R. Meier (2) & M. Giroux (4)(1) Zoological Museum, Universitetsparken 15, 2100 Copenhagen, DENMARK(2) Department of Biological Sciences, National University of Singapore, 117543SINGAPORE(3) Department of Animal Ecology, Nicolaus Copernicus University, Gagarina 9, 87-100Toruń, POLAND(4) Department of Natural Resource Sciences, McGill University, Macdonald Campus,Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue, QC, H9X 3V9, CANADAThe phylogeny of Sarcophagidae is ready to be upgraded intocomprehensive, testable, scientific hypotheses. The monophyly of the threeflesh fly subfamilies Miltogramminae, Paramacronychiinae andSarcophaginae is well corroborated, and in contrast to the other oestroidfamilies, the phylogenetic relationship between the constituent subfamiliesis well supported. Data from larval morphology is accumulatingparticularly for the subfamily Miltogramminae, providing valuableinformation that complements adult morphology and brings clues to themajor cladistic groupings within this subfamily. The small subfamilyParamacronychiinae contains several relict genera and species, and whilesome phylogenetic resolution is emerging, the first cladistic splits are stillan entirely open issue. The large subfamily Sarcophaginae is characterizedby extensive uniformity in external larval and adult morphology, and thecurrent classification is heavily dependent on the complex structures of thedistiphallus and acrophallus. Thorough documentation of these structuresis leading to re-interpretations of homologies and increasing support forcertain generic groupings, but widespread morphological homoplasy leavesmost branches on the subfamily phylogeny with low support values.Molecular data is rapidly accumulating from both mitochondrial andnuclear genes, adding support to the already well-corroborated sister-grouprelationship between Paramacronychiinae and Sarcophaginae and givingmuch new data relevant to the phylogenetic topology of the vast genusSarcophaga (sensu lato).Key Words: Sarcophagidae, phylogeny, adult, larva, morphology, DNA190
6th International Congress of DipterologyAn overview of the Diptera of ThailandPapp, L. (1) & M. Földvári (2)Hungarian Natural History Museum, Department of Zoology, 13, Baross u., Budapest, H-1088, Hungary, lpapp@nhmus.hu (1), foldvari@nhmus.hu (2)Thailand was not a colony, and it was not a target for extensive collectingactivities on Diptera. The old material is scattered, the “classical” works onthe flies of the Oriental Region contain rather few occurrence data, andThailand (formerly “Siam”) has been the type locality of a relatively lownumber of dipterous species.The publication of the Catalog of the Diptera of the Oriental Region(Delfinado & Hardy 1973, 1975, 1977) was an important action in thefaunistic survey of the Oriental flies, yet we estimate that more works andmore first records of species were published in the last three decades thanformerly. Unfortunately, neither a summary of Thailand Diptera, nor ahistory of the Diptera survey in Thailand has hitherto been published. Sofar there was no national collection of Diptera, which would serve as asolid base for a broad faunistic survey. Most recently, such a collection isunder development at the National Science Museum, Bangkok.Results of the Diptera identifications in the materials (nearly 15.000individuals) collected by the workers of the Hungarian Natural HistoryMuseum (HNHM, Budapest) in Thailand in 2003 and 2004 are reported(supplemented by a collection in 2000 of the MHNG, Geneva). Twentyfourfamilies are reported for the first time from Thailand, by whichrepresentatives of 99 Diptera families are known from this country. Threenew genera, a new subgenus and 29 new species have been described.The Diptera fauna of Thailand is rather unevenly known. There arefamilies, e.g. Culicidae, Tabanidae, Strongylophthalmyiidae and Muscidae,where the majority of the extant fauna has already been made known. Onthe other hand, there are species rich dipterous families, e.g.Mycetophilidae, Sciaridae, Hybotidae, Empididae, Dolichopodidae,Syrphidae, Chloropidae, Sphaeroceridae, etc., in which only a minorproportion has been surveyed yet.191
