“…In regions where M. sojae is endemic, control measures involve mainly the use of resistant cultivars and sowing outside population peaks (Guedes et al, 2017), but biological control with endemic beneficial insects is often mentioned as a potential control strategy against this pest (van den Berg, 1995;Fand et al, 2017). In fact, native natural enemies were reported parasitizing M. sojae in South America (Salgado-Neto et al, 2017) and other regions (Fand et al, 2017), but the role of these parasitoids in regulating pest populations is still unknown. Also, chemical insecticides have been used as the main strategy for controlling M. sojae, but outbreaks recorded in Paraguay suggest that chemical control is not always effective against this pest (Guedes et al, 2017).…”

The soybean stem fly, Melanagromyza sojae (Zehntner) (Diptera: Agromyzidae), is an example of an insect pest with a restricted distribution that in the last few decades has been spreading to regions beyond its native range and causing economic losses. We evaluated whether M. sojae shifted its niche during biological invasion and used ecological niche models to estimate its global distribution under current and future climate conditions. In addition, we assessed whether the soybean stem fly represents a risk for major soybean‐producing countries, using Brazil as an example. Our analyses suggest that M. sojae has expanded its niche to new environments. Suitable habitats were predicted in all continents, including regions where this species has not yet been reported. Several soybean‐producing countries and all Brazilian growing areas are within the suitable ranges estimated for M. sojae. Also, most areas estimated as suitable under current climate conditions will remain so until at least 2080. These findings are important for invasion risk assessments aiming to prevent the spread of this species to major soybean‐producing areas.

This note is the first report on the infection of adult stage of Melanagromyza sojae Zehntner, 1900 (Diptera: Agromyzidae) by the entomopathogenic fungus Ophiocordyceps dipterigena (Hypocreales: Ophiocordycipitaceae) (Berk. & Broome) G. H. Sung, J.M. Sung, Hywel-Jones & Spatafora, in subtropical Brazil. Entomopathogenic fungi, which attack dipteran insects, are of great scientific and economic importance mainly due to their potential as biological control agents of insect pests. Our findings bring new perspectives on the geographical distribution and host range of Ophiocordyceps dipterigena. We emphasize the need of further studies and research on new biological control agents of agricultural pests such as the soybean stem miner fly.
