Family Dryomyzidae View in CoL
Dryomyzinae Schiner, 1862: 148 View in CoL [as the subfamily Dryomyzinae View in CoL , family Muscidae View in CoL ]. Type genus: Dryomyza Fallén, 1820 View in CoL .
Medium-sized to large flies ( Fig. 1 View Fig ), body 4–18 mm in length, strong bristled to quite hairy, and yellow to brown or dark grey in colour.
Head slightly higher than long ( Figs 2, 3); eyes roundish or oval, moderately large, separated by broad frontal vitta in both sexes. Gena high (ca. 1/2–2/3 eye height to equal height of eye). Face uniformly sclerotized, without fascial carina developed, shallowly convex in profile. Antenna of moderate size, oriented ventrally; scape and pedicel small; postpedicel circular to elongated oval, with bare to plumose arista ( Figs 2–5). Clypeus conspicuous, sometimes protruding ( Figs 2, 3). Palpus and proboscis well-developed, but neither very large nor long. Chaetotaxy: 1 inner and 0–1 outer vertical, 1–3 lateroclinate fronto-orbital, 1 ocellar, and 1 postocellar setae present, the latter parallel or slightly divergent; no vibrissae.
Thorax somewhat longer than wide. Scutum moderately convex, with postpronotal lobes distinct. Chaetotaxy: 1 proepisternal (usually long), 0 proepimeral, usually several dorsal katepisternal (in Oedoparena Curran katepisternum with long fine hairs only), 0 anepisternal, 0–1 postpronotal, 1–2 notopleural, 1+1 supra-alar, 1–7 dorsocentral, 2 postalar setae present; acrostichal setae either absent or with a prescutellar pair; scutellum with 2–3 pairs of scutellar setae ( Figs 8, 9 View Figs 8–12 ). Lower margin of posterior spiracle without setae. Postmetacoxal bridge absent.
Legs slender to rather robust, not differ in both sexes; all tibiae with preapical dorsal seta; in Paradryomyza hind femur bearing two rows of spinules apically on ventral surface ( Figs 10, 11 View Figs 8–12 ).
Wing extending beyond apex of abdomen, hyaline to lightly infuscate or tawny; crossveins sometimes clouded ( Fig. 6 View Figs 6–7 ). Costal vein unbroken; subcostal vein complete; vein R 1 bare dorsally or setose along all length or at least on basal half; vein A 1 +CuA 2 evident to wing margin; crossvein bm-cu always present and distinctly apical of vein CuA2.
Abdomen ovoid, usually quite densely hairy, especially in male. Abdominal spiracles 2 to 5 located in tergites or membrane ( Oedoparena minor Suwa, 1981 ). Female abdominal tergites 6 and 7 of Paradryomyza spinulose ( Fig. 12 View Figs 8–12 ). Male genitalia: surstylus simple; epandrium with a pair of usually long projections (ventromedial processes) ( Figs 13–33 View Figs 13–18 View Figs 23–28 View Figs 29–33 ); distiphallus of aedeagus angulate, dorsal or ventral surface usually conspicuously setulose ( Figs 34–43 View Figs 34–43 ). Female with 3 small spermathecae.
