Synonymy: comis ( Nixon, 1954; Pachysema ).
Group: 2c.
Literature: Nixon 1954 -271; Griffiths III-822 [VII-350] (K III-897); Tobias (112, 215).
Hosts: Hypothesis— A parasitoid of agromyzid leafminers; (i) in the British Isles found on Phytomyza asteris (and possibly other Phytomyza ) on Tripolium pannonicum (= Aster tripolium ) ( Asteraceae ) in salt marshes; (ii) in continental Europe a broader range of Phytomyza spp. are attacked; (iii) used commercially as a biological control agent against leafminers (especially Liriomyza spp. ) in greenhouses. Evidence— (i) Griffiths (9); NMS (17); (ii) Griffiths (29); (iii) commercial material: NMS. Comment —Recorded hosts in continental Europe: P. ranuculi , P. plantaginis , P. spinaciae / autumnalis .
DNA Barcode: Yes.
Notes: The two subspecies distinguished by Griffiths (III-822) ( sibirica and comis) overlap in host range and morphology and have similar DNA barcodes and, as anticipated by Griffiths (VII-350), are not separated here. There is a moderately extensive applied literature on this species (e.g. Abe et al. 2005; Croft & Copland 1994a; b; 1995; Dicke & Minkenberg 1991; Kandori et al. 2008; Minkenberg 1990; Sugimoto et al. 1990).
Group: 2d.

Hosts: Hypothesis—Parasitoid of Phytomyza soldanellae mining leaves of Soldanella sp. ( Primulaceae ). Evidence —Griffiths (18).
DNA Barcode: No; morphologically similar single specimen in a BIN probably represents an undescribed species near D. soldanellae .
soma ( Nixon, 1948; Rhizarcha )
Literature: Nixon 1948 -220; Griffiths (K III-894); Tobias (20, 62).
Group: 1a.
Hosts: Hypothesis—Parasitoid of agromyzid (? Phytomyza luzulae ) mining leaves of Luzula sp. ( Juncaceae ). Evidence —NMS (1).
DNA Barcode: Yes.
