“…However, the phytozetic behaviour of pipizines, that is, the gall as stimulus for oviposition and laying eggs on the soil, is genuine. In this sense, we agree with Dušek and Láska () that the narrow oligophagy of pipizines might start with the use of galls as shelters, as some pipizines use larval galleries of poplar clearwing moth, Paranthrene tabaniformis (Rottemburg, 1775), and poplar longhorn beetle, Saperda populnea (Linnaeus, 1758), as winter shelters (Georgiev et al., , ). Secondarily, pipizines using these galls started to prey on waxy aphid inhabitants, which frequently have root‐feeding habits.…”

Phylogenetic relationships and taxonomic ranking of pipizine flower flies (Diptera: Syrphidae) with implications for the evolution of aphidophagy

The taxonomic rank and phylogenetic relationships of the pipizine flower flies (Diptera: Syrphidae: Pipizini) were estimated based on DNA sequence data from three gene regions (COI, 28S and 18S) and 111 adult morphological characters. Pipizini has been treated as a member of the subfamily Eristalinae based on diagnostic adult morphological characteristics, while the larval feeding mode and morphology is shared with members of the subfamily Syrphinae. We analysed each dataset, both separately and combined, in a total evidence approach under maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood. To evaluate the influence of different alignment strategies of rDNA 28S and 18S genes on the resulting topologies, we compared the topologies inferred from a multiple alignment using fast Fourier transform (MAFFT) program with those topologies resulting from aligning the secondary structure of these rDNA genes. Total evidence analyses resolved pipizines as a sister group of the subfamily Syrphinae. Although the structural alignment and the MAFFT alignment differed in the inferred relationships of some clades and taxa, there was congruence in the placement of pipizines. The homogeneous morphology of the Pipizini clade in combination with their unique combination of characters among the Syrphidae suggest a change of rank to subfamily. Thus, we propose to divide Syrphidae into four subfamilies, including the subfamily Pipizinae stat. rev.

“…After the publication of several subsequent works on the Bulgarian sawfly fauna, most significantly those by Vassilev (1978), Meitzner and Taeger (1982), and Taeger (1987), the number of recorded species rose to 346 definitely present, and two in need of confirmation, as collated in a survey of the European sawfly fauna (Taeger et al 2006). However, published records of some species already recorded in Bulgaria were overlooked during the compilation of the latter work (Georgiev 1990;Stoyanov and Ljobomirov 2000;Georgiev et al 2002Georgiev et al , 2004, and and Varna provinces, except for some localities further inland, in Pazardzhik and Sliven provinces, which were visited during the journeys respectively from and to Sofia airport. The localities in Burgas Province, therefore, lie within the rather ill-defined Euxinian biogeographic province, which extends along the western Anatolian Black Sea coast, and northwards through the Thracian coastal areas of Turkey into Bulgaria north to about Ropotamo or Burgas (Browicz 1989).…”

Thirty-nine species of sawfly (Symphyta) are recorded for the first time in Bulgaria. Most of these were collected during early spring of 2018, in the south-east of the country (Burgas and Varna Provinces). Empriaaridicola Macek & Prous, sp. nov. is described as new to science from specimens collected in several central, east and south European countries. Lectotypes are designated for Poecilosomaparvula Konow, 1892, Empriapravei Dovnar-Zapolskij, 1925 and E.pseudoklugi Dovnar-Zapolskij, 1929. Empriapravei and Sciapteryxbyzantina Benson, 1968 are at present only known in Europe from the coastal zone of the Black Sea. The new Bulgarian records of Hoplocampacantoti Chevin, 1986 and Neomessasteusloffi (Konow, 1892) represent large extensions in their recorded ranges, previously comprising respectively only northern France, and north-eastern Germany. Possible host plant associations are noted for several species, based on observations of adults.

Complements to volume I of the Hymenoptera Sphecidae from Western Europe (Faune de France 79). The present additional material intends to update vol. 79 of the " Faune de France" of Sphecidae (currently referred to as apoid wasps) which was published in 1993. The added material reports new points of view on the phylogeny and classification of these Hymenoptera. It also provides data on the taxonomy and geographical distribution of the different species of Crabroninae (tribes Crabronini and Oxybelini) known from the Western European fauna. Data are based on original observations and on literature (more than 300 bibliographic references). RésuméCes "Compléments" sont destinés à actualiser le volume 79 de la Faune de France des Hyménoptères Sphecidae, paru en 1993. Le texte fournit une mise à jour de la phylogénie et de la classification de ces Insectes (actuellement désignés sous le nom d'Apoïdes Sphéciformes) et un ensemble d''informations nouvelles sur la taxonomie et la répartition des différentes espèces de Crabroninae (tribus des Crabronini et Oxybelini) de la faune d'Europe occidentale. Ces informations sont basées sur des observations originales et sur les données tirées de la littérature (plus de 300 références).
