Pherbellia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830</p><p>(Figs. 1, 8, 35–38, 67)</p><p>Pherbellia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830: 695 . Type species: Pherbellia vernalis Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 (monotypy) [= Sciomyza schoenherri Fallén, 1826].</p><p>Diagnosis. Frons with 2 orbital seta. Prosternum bare. Propleural seta strong. Wing of most species hyaline without spots, of several species with reticulated pattern, and of a few species with infuscation.</p><p>Remarks. Comprising 95 described species (with 4 described subspecies), Pherbellia is the largest genus of Sciomyzidae . Species diversity is highest in the Palearctic Region, with 50 species, of which 42 are restricted to the Palearctic Region, with the range of 1 species, Pherbellia cinerella (Fallén, 1820), extending into the Oriental Region. The next highest species diversity is found in the Nearctic Region, with 32 species.</p><p>Before our study, only 5 species (including 1 subspecies) of Pherbellia were known from the Oriental Region: P. causta (Hendel, 1913) [= Hendel, 1913b], P. cinerella, P. javana (Meijere, 1919), P. nana reticulata (Thomson, 1869), and P. terminalis (Walker, 1858), and only 6 species (including 1 subspecies) of Pherbellia were known from China: P. brevistriata, P. causta, P. griseola, P. nana reticulata, P. orientalis, and P. terminalis (Knutson 1977; Rozkošný &amp; Elberg 1984; Rozkošný 1987; Rozkošný &amp; Knutson 1991; Li, Yang &amp; Gu 2001). The type localities of 3 of these species are in China: P. nana reticulata, from Kwangtung (Guangdong Province); P. causta, from Taiwan; and P. orientalis, from Harbin (Heilongjiang Province).</p><p>As a result of our study, at least 15 species of Pherbellia are now known from China, from both the Palearctic and Oriental Regions.</p><p>Pherbellia brevistriata Li, Yang &amp; Gu 2001 was described as a new species. Examination of additional specimens during this study convinced us that P. brevistriata is identical to P. nana reticulata; thus P. brevistriata becomes a junior synonym of P. nana reticulata .</p><p>Pherbellia ditoma Steyskal, 1956 is unique among Palearctic species of Pherbellia in having 2 stump veins on M 1+2. The original description (Steyskal 1956) was based on a male from Andong, Korea (in the Palearctic Region). During our study we determined 1 male P. ditoma from Jiangxi, 1 male from Zhejiang, and 1 female from Inner Mongolia. Located in the south of China, Jiangxi and Zhejiang are typical Oriental Region areas. Thus, in addition to being found in the Palearctic Region (Vala et al. 2012), our study shows for the first time that P. ditoma also is found in the Oriental Region. During our study we discovered 1 female of P. ditoma (Fig. 35), the first female specimen known of this species, from Inner Mongolia.</p><p>Pherbellia orientalis Rozkošný &amp; Knutson, 1991 was described as a new species on the basis of 1 female from Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, in the north of China (Palearctic Region). During our study we determined 4 males and 3 females from Yueyang, Hunan Province, in the south of China. The male of this species (Fig. 36) was previously unknown. We also report here the first occurrence of this species in the Oriental Region.</p><p>Pherbellia schoenherri (Fallén, 1826) is one of the few species in this genus with a reticulated wing pattern (Fig. 38). Two described allopatric subspecies are known: P. s. schoenherri (Fallén, 1826) from the Palearctic Region and P. s. maculata (Cresson, 1920) from the Nearctic Region. Collectively, this species (including both subspecies) was known previously from only the Holarctic Region (Vala et al. 2012, 2013). During our study we identified 2 males and 1 female of this species from Beijing and 2 males and 1 female of this species from Yunnan. The specimens from Yunnan represent the first record of P. schoenherri (P. s. schoenherri) from the Oriental Region. Only 2 species in this genus, P. schoenherri and P. cinerella, are known from both the Palearctic and Oriental Regions.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03C16F31C20EFFD5FF4EFD49FAFA2A16	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

We think that at least 3 more species will be added to this number when we have completed our examination of specimens.</p><p>About 36 males and 25 females in our study were determined to be D. japonica . Before our study, Dichetophora japonica had been reported only from the Palearctic Region [Hokkaido, Honshu, Japan (Sueyoshi 2001)]. The 61 specimens that we determined include specimens not only from locations in the Palearctic Region of China such as Beijing, Ningxia, Gansu Province, and Shaanxi Province but also from locations in the Oriental Region of China such as Tibet, Sichuan Province, Chongqing, Guizhou Province, Hubei Province, and Zhejiang Province. Thus, 2 species of Dichetophora — D. intermedia and D. japonica —are now known from the Oriental Region.</p><p>Rozkošný (1992) transferred Euthycera meleagris (Hendel, 1933) from Euthycera to Dichetophora as a new combination, " Dichetophora meleagris (Hendel, 1943) " [(sic); error for Hendel, 1933]. Euthycera meleagris Hendel, 1933 thus became a junior synonym of Dichetophora meleagris (Hendel, 1933) . Euthycera meleagris had been recorded from China before our study. Hendel (1933) described E. meleagris on the basis of 2 males from “Süd- Kansu ” (Gansu Province) in northwestern China. Rozkošný (1987) redescribed E. meleagris based on 1 of the 2 males of Hendel's types. The most prominent character of E. meleagris is the pattern of the wing, with numerous white spots, to which the species' name refers.</p><p>In September 2017, 5 males and 16 females of Sciomyzidae, wings of which had small, round, white spots, were collected by use of Malaise traps in Mentougou, Beijing, China over a period of a few days. At first glance, the 21 specimens appeared to consist of a single species, but after careful examination we determined that they were 2 groups, representing a number of different species or even different genera. Seven females (Group 1, Figs. 51–52, 54, 56) belong to Euthycera, whose typical characters are 1) scutellum with 2 pairs of setae (Fig. 54), 2) ocellar setae developed (Fig. 54), and 3) hind femur in both sexes without distinct blunt ventral spines (Figs. 51–52). Other external characters from Hendel's (1933) description, including “Legs yellow (Fig. 51–52), the white spots reaching almost directly to the edge the wing (Fig. 56),” fit well with his original description of E. meleagris, and the external characters “Legs yellow, costal margin of wings with 6 subquadrate pale spots (Fig. 56)” fit well with Rozkošný's (1987) redescription of E. meleagris . Although the type specimens are not available, we can confirm that the 7 females are indeed E. meleagris Hendel, 1933 .</p><p>We observed that 5 males and 9 females (Group 2, Figs. 49–50, 53, 55) have characters that place them in the genus Dichetophora: 1) scutellum only with 1 pair of setae (Fig. 53), 2) ocellar setae undeveloped (Fig. 53), and 3) hind femur of males and females with distinct blunt ventral spines in apical 1/3 (Figs. 49–50). Besides the differences at the generic level, Group 2 differs from Group 1 in the following 2 characters: 1) legs pale in basal half and yellow in apical half (Fig. 50), and 2) apex and posterior margin of the wing paler and the white spots not reaching the edge of the wing (Fig. 55). Judging from fact that all of these specimens were collected in the same place and within a few days of each other, it is clear that 2 similar-appearing species belonging to 2 different genera truly exist. We hereby remove Euthycera meleagris Hendel, 1933 from synonymy with Dichetophora meleagris (Hendel, 1933) and resurrect Euthycera meleagris Hendel, 1933 as a valid species.</p><p>The characters of the species of Dichetophora in Group 2 do not match those of any of the 4 known Palearctic species; it is as yet unknown whether it is a described species or a new species. In any instance, the species in Group 2 should be given a name other than Dichetophora meleagris, which is preoccupied and thus unavailable. If it proves to be a new species, we will name it in a paper we are preparing.</p><p>Specimens examined. CHINA, Beijing, Mentougou: 1♂ 1♀, 1176 m, 2017. IX. 20, Hu Li (CAU); 2♂ 3♀, 1143 m, 2017.

Tetanocera Duméril, 1800</p><p>(Figs. 32, 62, 68)</p><p>Tetanocera Duméril, 1800: 439 . Type species: Musca elata Fabricius, 1781 (I.C.Z.N. validation of the generic name). Chaetomacera Cresson, 1920: 54 . Type species: Musca elata Fabricius, 1781 (original designation).</p><p>Diagnosis. Usually larger species. Body always yellowish brown. Frontal vitta stripe-like and shining, sometimes frons entirely shining. Arista mostly with long plumose hairs. Anepisternum and anepimeron bare. Subalar setae absent. Wing hyaline without spots, at most with darkened costal margin and crossveins.</p><p>Remarks. Comprising 39 described species, Tetanocera is the fourth largest genus of Sciomyzidae . According to Rozkošný (1987) and Vala et al. (2012), 20 species are known from the Palearctic Region, 30 species are known from the Nearctic Region (with 1 species, T. plumosa, extended into the Neotropical Region), and 2 species are known from the Oriental Region.</p><p>Before our study, 6 species of Tetanocera ( T. arrogans, T. chosenica, P. elata, T. ferruginea, T. ignota, and T. nigrostriata) had been recorded from China (Knutson 1977; Rozkošný &amp; Elberg 1984; Rozkošný 1987; Li, Yang &amp; Gu 2001). The type locality of 2 species are in China: P. ignota, whose type locality is Tibet, and T. nigrostriata, whose type locality is Kunming (Yunnan Province). During our study we determined about 7 species new to China, bringing to at least 13 the number of species known from China. Although Tetanocera is found in both the Palearctic and Oriental Regions of China, most specimens of Tetanocera in our study were from the Palearctic Region of China.</p><p>According to the key of Rozkošný (1987), only T. latifibula Frey, 1924 and T. punctifrons Rondani, 1868, are both characterized by having 1 preapical seta on the posterior surface of the midfemur. In our study, 49 specimens (15 males and 34 females) were found to have this character, which means that each of the specimens is most likely to be either T. latifibula or T. punctifrons . The 49 specimens were collected both from the Palearctic Region of China, including such areas as Inner Mongolia, Liaoning Province, Hebei Province, and Beijing and from the Oriental Region of China, and including such areas as Sichuan Province, Henan Province (Nanyang, Xinyang), Yunnan Province, Guizhou Province, and Zhejiang Province. Both T. latifibula and T. punctifrons have been reported only from the Palearctic Region before, so our records from the Oriental Region of China indicate that Tetanocera has a more extensive distribution than had been known.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03C16F31C218FFC7FF4EFB79FD3D2A5E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
