tailieunhanh - Cryptochetidae (Diptera): first record of the family from Turkey

The first record of the family Cryptochetidae is given from Turkey. Cryptochetum grandicorne and C. jorgepastori were found in Turkey. Four original figures are presented. The species of the small family Cryptochetidae are little known (McAlpine, 1987; Pitkin, 1989; Nartshuk, 2000). Most of its representatives are know from the Old World tropics as 30 described species in the genus Cryptochetum have been described from the Old World (the relegation of the genus Librella McAlpine, 1976 to Cryptochetidae is rather questionable). |
