Agromyza vockerothi is a species of leaf miner fly in the family Agromyzidae, found in North America. The larva of this species feed on brambles (Rubus). [1] [2] [3] [4]
The Agromyzidae are a family of flies, commonly referred to as the leaf-miner flies for the feeding habits of their larvae, most of which are leaf miners on various plants. It includes roughly 2,500 species, they are small, some with wing length of 1 mm. The maximum size is 6.5 mm. Most species are in the range of 2 to 3 mm.
Peucedanum is a genus of flowering plant in the carrot family, Apiaceae. Peucedanum boasts a global presence with diverse spread of morphological features. Peucedanum species are characterized by dorsally compressed mericarps, slightly prominent dorsal ribs, narrowly winged lateral ribs, and a broad commissure. However, the vast diversity of morphology, fruit forms, and phytochemical production makes classifying species in the Peucedanum challenging. Historically relevant in traditional medicine, Peucedanum's taxonomic complexity arises from its extensive diversity.
Agromyza is a genus of flies belonging to the family Agromyzidae. The adults of these flies can be recognised by the presence of stridulatory files on the first two abdominal tergites in both males and females. Another useful identifying feature is the halteres which are usually white or yellow, although they are darker in a few tropical species.
Tselfatia is an extinct genus of Cretaceous bony fish. Originally described from Djebl Tselfat in Morocco, it has since been discovered at sites in several other countries. The type species, Tselfatia formosa, was named and described in 1944 by French paleontologist Camille Arambourg. A second species, T. dalmatica, was named in 1980 from the Dalmatian Coast of Yugoslavia.
Agromyza nigripes is a species of fly in the family Agromyzidae. It is found in the Palearctic. The body is black. The thorax and abdomen are shiny. There are 1 + 4 dorsocentral bristles and 7 rows of acrostical bristles. The wing veins are brown, yellow at the base. Long. : 2–3,5 mm. The larva makes serpentine mines in Medicago sativa leaves.
Sciophila is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Mycetophilidae. There are at least 50 described species in Sciophila.
