Description. Male. Total body length 2.22–3.10 mm; general colour widely variable as in A. concolor but most specimens largely dark brown ( Figs 340 View Figs 339–342 , 357 View Figs 357–360 ) with only head (partly) and extremities yellow, rarely partly to largely yellow (cf. female on Fig. 342 View Figs 339–342 ) with various pale brown to dark brown darkenings on head, thorax and abdomen. Head about as long as high, anteriorly somewhat angular in pronle as in A. concolor , largely yellow but frons and occiput with brown to blackish brown darkenings of various extent. Occiput slightly concave medially, in (rare) pale specimens yellow with brown crescent-shaped areas surrounding medial pair of silvery white microtomentose spots but not reaching eye margin; in (more common) dark specimens these areas darkened and enlarged even to the extent of covering most of occiput, leaving yellow only on ventralmost part behind postgena and small spots in dorsal part of medial silvery microtomentose areas. Frons relatively narrow, largely dull yellow; pale specimens with only ocellar triangle brownish; darker specimens with brown area darker and covering most of frontal triangle (except for narrow anterior corner), and orbits behind posterior ors, and ocellar triangle blackish brown; frontal triangle subshining, with sparse whitish to grey (posteriorly) microtomentum, the latter denser and darker on ocellar triangle.

Cercus long and slender (its basal part hidden below T10, Fig. 371 View Figs 369–375 ), with numerous nne and moderately long setae (apical and dorsopreapical longest), but largely without micropubescence, which is restricted to ventral side.

Discussion. Anthomyza vockerothi sp. nov. belongs to the A. concolor subgroup, and appears to be the group’s most extensively modined member, particularly with respect to the female postabdominal sclerites, which are strikingly narrowed and prolonged from the 7th segment. Because of its similarly formed structures in the male and female terminalia, A. vockerothi is considered a member of the A. concolor subgroup, forming a sister group to the A. concolor A. occidentalis pair (see discussion under A. concolor ).

The species is the most frequently collected and widest-ranging species of the A. concolor subgroup. It is similarly variable in body colouration to both of its nearest relatives but, in contrast to these, pale specimens are relatively rare, with the darker specimens prevailing in collections. However, there is an unusual series that is highly dominated by pale specimens (British Columbia: Qualicum). Anthomyza vockerothi females can be readily recognized by their slender, elongate postabdomen, combined with one pair of medial, silvery white microtomentose spots on the occiput (these are absent in externally similar females in the A. tschirnhausi group). Males can be easily confused with those of A. concolor and A. occidentalis without examination of the male genitalia, as the form of the gonostylus is particularly diagnostic, being long and very slender, tapering towards the apex. Other diagnostic characters of A. vockerothi are: frontal triangle elongate, with long projecting and acute anterior corner; aedeagal part of folding apparatus with numerous dark tubercles; saccus with 3 (of a total 5) robust spines situated near its basal part; female T7 and S7 very slender and elongate; T7 unusually glossy because of reduced micropubescence and with large posterolateral sclerotized lobes; S7 narrowly pale-pigmented medially; female T8 elongate and with narrow deep anteromedial incision; female S8 unusually long; female cercus long and dorsally without micropubescence.

Etymology. The new species is named after the late J. R. Vockeroth, an inspiring dipterist whose legacy includes the anthomyzid chapter in the “Manual of Nearctic Diptera ” and many anthomyzid specimens in the CNCI.

Biology. The results from rearing A. vockerothi from Equisetum ssuviatile in Ontario (~8.5 km NW Marathon, Figs 359, 360 View Figs 357–360 ) are discussed below. This host relationship is further supported by the fact that all known collections from Ontario (Dubreuilville, Marathon, Moosonee, Pancake Bay P. Pk.) and the only site in Manitoba (~ 6 km SW Shilo) included E. ssuviatile , which was usually the dominant vegetative component. Adults in western Canada were also collected from pure growths of E. ssuviatile (Alberta: ~21.9 km W Bearberry, ~3.4 km SSW Hinton, W. A. Switzer P. Pk. – Hay River Rd. W.) or “mostly” E. ssuviatile (Alberta: ~2.5 km SE Canmore, ~4.4 km NNE Kananaskis Village). Combinations of E. ssuviatile with Carex species include C. utriculata (Alberta: Fish Creek P. Pk.) and C. aquatilis (Alberta: ~4.4 km SSW Hinton; Ontario: Marathon). Other species of horsetail are also possible hosts for this species, either in combination with E. ssuviatile (British Columbia: ~2.9 km NNW Golden, E. palustre L.) or in combination with C. utriculata (British Columbia: Parson, E. palustre & E. × litorale Kühlew. ex Rupr., pro sp. ( E. arvense × E. ssuviatile )), with both sites also yielding small numbers of A. concolor . Equisetum palustre is implicated by collections in Alberta (Edmonton – Fort Edmonton Pk., ~ 15 km SSW Hinton) or in combination with Eleocharis (Edmonton – Fort Edmonton Pk.). In Oregon (Samuel Boardman St. Pk.), Equisetum telmateia braunii was a very dominant component of the habitat shared with A. occidentalis (n = 2) and A. concolor (n = 1). The record of a single female from a mix of E. arvense and E. laevigatum A. Braun (British Columbia: Fernie) is doubtful evidence of a host relationship, as this very small patch bordered a much larger growth of C. utriculata that yielded more specimens of A. vockerothi along with A. mcalpinei and A. pengellyi . Another site that was dominated by C. utriculata (?) and a Poa sp. (Alberta: Spray Valley P. Pk.) did not have an obvious component of Equisetum .

A common theme in the majority of collections of A. vockerothi is a habitat of moist to wet ground or even emergent vegetation. Hosts clearly include horsetails, but graminoids, particularly sedges and rushes, are also strong candidates where they occur with or without horsetails. The dune system supporting emergent Eleocharis sp. (Oregon: Ophir, Fig. 341 View Figs 339–342 ) is a simplined habitat shared with A. concolor , but in a drier portion of this same dune system supporting Carex sp., only a few A. vockerothi were found. A nearby habitat (Oregon: Ophir – Coy Ck. Rd.) also produced A. vockerothi (to the exclusion of both A. concolor and A. occidentalis ) from an unidentined Scirpus . Two species of Scirpus separately yielded A. vockerothi (California: Prairie Ck. Redwoods St. Pk.) along with larger numbers of A. concolor . A collection of A. vockerothi was also made from Juncus (California: Crescent City – Tell Blvd.), while independent collections suggest a preference for Juncus (n = 33) over grasses (n = 2) in the absence of Carex or Equisetum (California: ~1.5 km W Orick). Complex mixes of grasses, sedges and horsetails, such as the type locality for A. pullinotum (Alberta: ~22.7 km S Bellevue, Fig. 313 View Figs 313–315 ), cannot be specincally assessed for potential host plant based solely on neld observation or label data (this site yielded A. vockerothi , A. pullinotum , and A. pengellyi ).

More general references for habitat of A. vockerothi include “vegetation along shoreline” and “ grasses at edge of agricultural neld” (Alberta: Dunvegan), “ sedges and grass at upper beach” (Alberta: 10 km N Whitecourt), “ grasses ” (British Columbia: Klondike Hwy near Fraser), “grass/ sedges along river margin” (Yukon: Alaska Highway at Yukon River crossing) and “fen area” (California: Inglenook Fen).

The sampling of E. ssuviatile at the Ontario: Marathon site was intended to investigate and connrm a relationship with A. vockerothi , similar to that seen in A. equiseti (see below under that species). Since both species of ny occur together at this site ( Fig. 359 View Figs 357–360 , A. vockerothi ), there was an opportunity to look for evidence of differential use of the habitat.

Overwintered stems of E. ssuviatile were sampled on 28 April 2012. Spring melt was still nowing through from a neighbouring lake so that exposed dry stems were raked off the surface (“dry” sample) and segregated from a larger sample of wet and submerged stems (“wet” sample). Samples were transported in 20-L plastic pails and the “wet” pails were decanted several times on the trip back to the laboratory to avoid compaction. The “wet” sample was further decanted and dried using paper towels and overnight exposure to a fan, with all samples held at 22°C and 16L:8D. Although the search was focused on the nodes, stems (hollow internodes) were often quickly checked but a larva was never found within a stem, just as was found for A. equiseti at the Echo Bay Marsh site (see discussion under that species). A subsample of 50 nodes containing larvae from each of the “dry” and “wet” samples (100 nodes total) was accumulated from 29 April to 1 May 2012 and held in 4-dram pill vials at 22°C. The remainders of the samples were maintained in 20-L pails with sheer fabric fastened over the tops with shock cords for assessment of daily adult emergence.

The 100 occupied nodes yielded 101 ny larvae. These larvae, in turn, yielded 92 puparia, which produced 54 adult nies – 53 Anthomyza spp. and one female Plunomia transversa Malloch, 1940 (Chamaemyiidae) . Of these 53 Anthomyza , a total of 46 had data sufncient for estimation of pupariation periods at 22°C. The larger-bodied A. vockerothi had a pupariation period of about one day shorter (3 ♂♂ 10.7 ± 0.3; 12 ♀♀ 10.5 ± 0.2 days) than that of the smaller A. equiseti (18 ♂♂ 11.7 ± 0.1; 13 ♀♀ 11.6 ± 0.1 days) in both sexes. Thirty puparia (not identined to species) were parasitized: 13 by Figitidae (Eucoilinae) , 6 by Braconidae , 6 by Encyrtidae , and 5 by unknown parasitoids (did not emerge). Another 6 ny puparia died of unknown causes, one puparium was punctured and one was lost.

The 53 adult Anthomyza reared from nodes consisted of 34 A. equiseti and 19 A. vockerothi ( Table 1 View Table 1 ). Most of the A. vockerothi adults were from the “wet” sample (18 of 19) while the distribution of A. equiseti was more even. The pails yielded a total of 32 A. equiseti and 138 A. vockerothi (12 May to 10 July 2012) but it is more instructive to discuss the proportional distribution of the total emergence from the nodes and pails together. From these combined data, most of the total 223 nies were A.vockerothi (157) of which 105 were from the “wet” sample compared to 52 from the “dry” sample while the combined sex ratio favoured males (84 ♂♂: 73 ♀♀). In contrast, there was no difference between “wet” and “dry” samples for A. equiseti (n = 33) and males again outnumbered females (40: 26). However, since there was a 1.3x difference in total air-dried weight of the larger “wet” (315.4 g) versus the smaller “dry” (238.8 g) samples, part of the 2.0x difference in the porportional numbers of A. vockerothi in the “wet” and “dry” samples could be explained by a difference in the size of samples. A similar correction would tip the proportions of A. equiseti from balanced toward a bias for “dry” stems.

The difference in proportional representation of the two species between the dissected nodes and the pails is probably an artefact of subsampling which did not employ a rigourously randomized approach. It is our opinion that the total yield favouring A. vockerothi is a better renection of the overall proportional representation of each species and that the larvae all resided behind the sheath at the nodes. The segregation of the “wet” and “dry” samples was initially made as a pragmatic means of handling the neld samples, but it was also recognized that these might represent different spring habitats, and the two species might differentially infest (survive in) stems that dry out at different times in the spring. There is some initial evidence here to suggest that these two species are utilizing the stems differently.

The host association for both species of ny with E. ssuviatile is established in at least Ontario, although it is not the only potential host for at least A. vockerothi (see discussion above and under A. equiseti ). It should be pointed out that among species of Equisetum , only those that have annual stems that retain their sheath teeth throughout the season and fall to the duff layer in the cold season (subgenus Equisetum including E. arvense , E. ssuviatile , E. palustre , E. pratense Ehrh. , E. sylvaticum L., E. telmateia braunii , E. × litorale and other hybrids, and subgenus Hippochaete with only E. laevigatum A. Braun), are likely candidates if the larval microhabitat described here can be generalized.

There were only two other adult Anthomyza that emerged from E. ssuviatile that represent other species. A single male of A. gibbiger emerged from the “dry” sample while a single female of A. gilviventris emerged from the “wet” sample.

The flight period for A. vockerothi runs from 9 April (Oregon: McDonald Forest) to 25 September (California: Fort Cronkhite).

Distribution. Anthomyza vockerothi is commonly encountered in western North America from Alaska to Northwest Territories south to California, Utah and Colorado, with only a few records found from Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, and Michigan. The recorded data represent Canada: Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Northwest Territories, Ontario, Quebec, Saskatchewan, Yukon; United States of America: Alaska, California, Colorado, Idaho, Michigan, Montana, Oregon, Utah, Washington, Wyoming (see Table 2).
