Mapping the Predicted Geographic Range of The Gall Former Schizomyia botellus (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) under Influence of Climatic Factors in Arid Habitats.
Abstract:In some localities of Sinai, the gall-midge Schizomyia botellus Dorchin & Freidberg, 2011 (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) induce elongated galls on the axillary buds of Deverra triradiata Hochst. ex Boiss (Family: Apiaceae). The present work studies the relationship between S. botellus and D. tortuosa. Furthermore, the present study predicted the distribution of S. botellus in Sinai, Egypt by using Maxent modeling, in addition, to studying the influence of elevation and plant cover on its distribution.The predominanc… Show more
