Subject: [Syrphidae] Syrphids as invasive species
Message-ID:
Dear all,
I would like to continue with the discussion on introduced species, and if
some of them may be considered 'invasive'.
In the webpage invasive.org, dealing with invasive species for USA, there
is a list of syrphids: http://www.invasive.org/browse/TaxImages.cfm?fam=475
I have a special interest in *Simosyrphus grandicornis*, which has been
introduced to a number of Polynesian Islands and Hawaii. So, if this
species has been introduced by humans, why now consider it as invasive?
Does anyone have more information about the introduction of *S.
grandicornis* or its invasiveness?
Thanks for the helpful comments.
Best wishes,
Ximo

The list doesn't look like a list of invasives, but of a random set of pictures including a lot of invasives.
Surely most invasive species have colonised because of humans, whether deliberate or not, so the distinction does not seem to be a useful one. The key point is that most colonisations fail, however they occur in the forst place: it is the successful ones that become 'invasives' and the reasons for that success are interesting and worth studying.

Hi,
Especially the pictures of 5485943, 5485944 (perhaps ?), 5485945,
5485946 are not syrphid larvae but Cecidomyiidae...
Happy New Year.

Cyrille,
I second your identification, clearly predatory Cecidomyiidae! Also the E
tenax is E. arbustorum (5516409) an the Simosyrphus (5507035) is a female
of Eristalis stipator!
1599325 is Toxomerus politus
And in the US they refer to Cheilosia grossa under C. corydon.... and this
one was introduced as a biocontrol agent to fight the European thistle...
54544290 is Eupeodes, likely E. americanus
5454418 is Toxomerus marginatus
5454419 is my favorite, a Bombyliidae Poecilanthrax very likely P. lucifer
I just realized there are much more records, but it is not worth my time
going through that... another big database full of errors and useless
information...
Cheers
Martin

Thanks guys.
I realized about the errors... they are so obvious!!
My question was more about the general idea of invasive/introduced syrphid
species.

Message-ID:
invasive has always a negative connotation, so they are harmful, mainly to
humans, agriculture, forestry or livestock. Introduced is more neutral, so
they can be introduced as biocontrolagents (like Chrilosia grossa), food
etc or accidentally introduced like Myathropa florea was introduced to CA a
few years ago, it is not harmful nor beneficial....Only if something takes
over and impacts us, we call it invasive, which is a very subjective term
and depends sometimes on personal points of view (Are Eucalyptus trees in
California invasive or not??)

Dear Gilbert professor
My name is Roya Rashidi , MS student of zoology biosystematics international university Qeshm in Iran.
Title of my thesis is about identifying Diptera: syrphidae
Of Iran's flower flies in Bam township, during collecting the samples I've found one new sample, I couldn't recognize it by existing identifying keys. So I will send picture of this unrecognizable samples for you in to be confirmed and defined. If required, I will send you the sample itself.
Best regards,
Roya Rashidi

Dear all
a specific question to European entomologists.
As in many mainland European countries, in Belgium we currently do have both Microdon myrmicae
in boggy areas (pupae and larvae have been found), and a much larger sibling species living on hot dry calcereous grasslands that would categorize as
"probable" M. mutabilis.
However, M. mutabilis has been described in the UK living with the ant Formica lemanii that does not occur at these sites.
A sibling ant species Formica fusca does occur on the chalk grasslands and we suspect it to be the host of the large "M mutabilis" that fly here, but we have been unable to find Microdon larvae in these nests, as yet.
Can anyone comment on how they deal with this in their own country, and if anyone has found the M mutabilis larvae/puparia yet in mainland europe together with F fusca?
best regards
Frank

Dear Frank,
If helpful, I could characterize these using DNA-sequencing (e.g. COI, 16S and 28S). Part of these data are available in GenBank (from Ximo, Gunilla and others) or can be gathered ourselves. You would then have some indication on how close your 'probable' mutabilis would be to the data already available. So, if you wish, you can send me a single leg of a few specimens (each leg in a separate tube) of each taxon in ethanol to the address below.
Cheers,
kurt

Apparently, if from India, it should be Ischiodon scutellaris rather than aegyptius?.

Hi Frank,
We probably looked for them more than most and no we haven't found M. mutabilis in Formica fusca nests before and I think that is also true for our continental colleagues?
If Kurt can genotype specimens easily, I suggest that's the best way. Unfortunately we don't do that kind of analysis routinely here at CEH. In case you haven't seen it and it is useful I also attach a primer note from my colleague Mike Gardner who developed a set of microsats for M. mutabilis.
Mike, did we ever try them on M. myrmicae? I looked at the paper and there is no reference to it?
Cheers
Karsten

Dear Frank,
If helpful, I could characterize these using DNA-sequencing (e.g. COI, 16S and 28S). Part of these data are available in GenBank (from Ximo, Gunilla and others) or can be gathered ourselves. You would then have some indication on how close your 'probable' mutabilis would be to the data already available. So, if you wish, you can send me a single leg of a few specimens (each leg in a separate tube) of each taxon in ethanol to the address below.
Cheers,
kurt

Subject: [Syrphidae] Microdon mutabilis
Dear all
a specific question to European entomologists.
As in many mainland European countries, in Belgium we currently do have both Microdon myrmicae
in boggy areas (pupae and larvae have been found), and a much larger sibling species living on hot dry calcereous grasslands that would categorize as
"probable" M. mutabilis.
However, M. mutabilis has been described in the UK living with the ant Formica lemanii that does not occur at these sites.
A sibling ant species Formica fusca does occur on the chalk grasslands and we suspect it to be the host of the large "M mutabilis" that fly here, but we have been unable to find Microdon larvae in these nests, as yet.
Can anyone comment on how they deal with this in their own country, and if anyone has found the M mutabilis larvae/puparia yet in mainland europe together with F fusca?
best regards
Frank

Could be an Eupeodes, but these Syrphini are nearly impossible to get to
species or often even genus just from one photograph... and it would also
help if you would have included a locality, I guess they are from India.
And this is one of the least known places for Syrphids, partially because
it is nearly impossible to collect in India or to get any types or material
from there. Kumar Ghorpade (kumarsinh.g at gmail.com) knows a lot about
Oriental Syrphids and is your best guess in getting this material
identified.
Best wishes,

We flagged those seasonal differences of E. pertinax in the original (1983)
British Hoverflies book. Quite a few species show seasonal dimorphism and I
summarise it for British Cheilosia in the following paper:
Falk, S. J. 2004. Brood dimorphism in Cheilosia cynocephala Loew (Diptera,
Syrphidae) and
separation of the first generation from C. vernalis (Fallen). Dipterists
Digest, 11: 123-126.
Particularly well expressed in C. vulpina (conops was the summer
generation), proxima and pagana
Also strong in Myathropa florea, Meliscaeva auricollis and Dasysyrphus
albostriatus. Bivoltine Andrena bees have even more extreme examples e.g. A.
rosae and A. trimmerana:
