Anasyntormon Exceptus
''Anasyntormon'' is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It was originally placed in the subfamily Rhaphiinae near '' Syntormon''. It was transferred to Dolichopodinae by Hans Ulrich (1980), who found it to be congeneric or closely related to ''Hercostomus''. The genus was originally established by Octave Parent in 1932; however, as he did not designate a type species for it, the name was unavailable until 1975, when C. E. Dyte designated '' A. secundus'' as the type species. The holotype specimen of '' A. exceptus'' was deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, which was destroyed during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956.

Octave Parent
Abbé Octave Parent (15 June 1882, in Trescault – 9 February 1942, in Ambleteuse) was a French entomologist who specialized in Diptera, mostly the family Dolichopodidae. He became director of the Biological Station, Ambleteuse. He published three papers, dated 1934, 1937 and 1940, concerning twenty-six new species of Hawaiian '' Campsicnemus''. The type specimen In biology, a type is a particular wikt:en:specimen, specimen (or in some cases a group of specimens) of an organism to which the scientific name of that organism is formally associated. In other words, a type is an example that serves to ancho ...s of all the species described in the 1937 paper were deposited in the collection of the Hawaiian Entomological Society. The species ''Sigmatineurum parenti'', found in Hawaii, is named in memory of Parent, "in honor of his foundational work with Hawaiian dolichopodids and for describing the genus '' Sigmatineurum''".

Dolichopodidae
Dolichopodidae, the long-legged flies, are a large, cosmopolitan family of true flies with more than 8,000 described species in about 250 genera. The genus '' Dolichopus'' is the most speciose, with some 600 species. Dolichopodidae generally are small flies with large, prominent eyes and a metallic cast to their appearance, though there is considerable variation among the species. Most have long legs, though some do not. In many species, the males have unusually large genitalia which are taxonomically useful in identifying species. Most adults are predatory on other small animals, though some may scavenge or act as kleptoparasites of spiders or other predators. Description Dolichopodidae are a family of flies ranging in size from minute to medium-sized (1mm to 9mm). They have characteristically long and slender legs, though their leg length is not as striking as in families such as the Tipulidae. Their posture often is stilt-like standing high on their legs, with the body ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Zootaxa
''Zootaxa'' is a peer-reviewed scientific mega journal for animal taxonomists. It is published by Magnolia Press (Auckland, New Zealand). The journal was established by Zhi-Qiang Zhang in 2001 and new issues are published multiple times a week. From 2001 to 2020, more than 60,000 new species have been described in the journal accounting for around 25% of all new taxa indexed in The Zoological Record in the last few years. Print and online versions are available. Temporary suspension from JCR The journal exhibited high levels of self-citation and its journal impact factor of 2019 was suspended from ''Journal Citation Reports'' in 2020, a sanction which hit 34 journals in total. Biologist Ross Mounce noted that high levels of self-citation may be inevitable for a journal which publishes a large share of new species classification. Later that year, this decision was reversed and it was admitted that levels of self-citation are appropriate considering the large proportion of p ...

Syntormon
''Syntormon'' is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It includes about 110 species worldwide, more than 50 of which were described from the Palaearctic realm. Etymology The name ''Syntormon'' is derived from the Ancient Greek word (, "I connect by inserted pins"); it refers to the second segment of the antennae which has a small thumb-shaped projection going into the inner side of the third segment, appearing as if it were a pin inserted into a socket. Species The following species are included in the genus: Subgenus ''Syntormon'' Loew, 1857: *'' Syntormon abbreviatus'' Becker, 1918 *'' Syntormon affinis'' ( Wheeler, 1899) *'' Syntormon ama'' Hollis, 1964 *''Syntormon aotearoa'' Bickel, 1999 *''Syntormon babu'' Hollis, 1964 *''Syntormon beijingensis'' Yang, 1998 *''Syntormon bicolorellus'' ( Zetterstedt, 1843) *''Syntormon bisinuatus'' Van Duzee, 1925 *''Syntormon boninensis'' Bickel, 1994 *''Syntormon brevicornis'' Frey, 1936 *''Syntormon bulgariensis'' Negrob ...

Dolichopodinae
Dolichopodinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Systematics The subfamily Dolichopodinae is divided into two tribes, Dolichopodini and Tachytrechini, in Negrobov (1986, 1991). In Brooks (2005)'s phylogenetic analysis of the subfamily, these tribes are not supported, and four informal generic groups are instead recognised. The following list of genera generally follows Grichanov (2017): *'' Allohercostomus'' Yang, Saigusa & Masunaga, 2001 *'' Katangaia'' Parent, 1933 (Dolichopodinae or ''incertae sedis'') *†'' Prohercostomus'' Grichanov, 1997 *'' Pseudohercostomus'' Stackelberg, 1931 (Dolichopodinae or ''incertae sedis'') *Tribe Dolichopodini Latreille, 1809 **'' Afrohercostomus'' Grichanov, 2010 **'' Ahercostomus'' Yang & Saigusa, 2001 **'' Ahypophyllus'' Zhang & Yang, 2005 **'' Anasyntormon'' Dyte, 1975 **'' Dolichopus'' Latreille, 1796 **'' Ethiromyia'' Brooks in Brooks & Wheeler, 2005 **'' Gymnopternus'' Loew, 1857 **'' Hercostomus'' Loew, 1857 ...

Hercostomus
''Hercostomus'' is a genus of fly, flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is a large genus, containing more than 483 species worldwide. Multiple studies have shown that ''Hercostomus'' is a polyphyly, polyphyletic assemblage of species. Species groups The genus currently includes the following species groups, at least 25 of which are known from China: * ''Hercostomus abnormis'' group – China * ''Hercostomus absimilis'' group – China * ''Hercostomus albidipes'' group – China * ''Hercostomus apiculatus'' group – China * ''Hercostomus baishanzuensis'' group – China * ''Hercostomus biancistrus'' group – China * ''Hercostomus crassivena'' group – China * ''Hercostomus curvus'' group – China * ''Hercostomus cyaneculus'' group – China * ''Hercostomus digitatus'' group – China * ''Hercostomus digitiformis'' group – China * ''Hercostomus fatuus'' group – China * ''Hercostomus flavimaculatus'' group – China * ''Hercostomus flaviventris'' group – China * ''Hercost ...

Holotype
A holotype (Latin: ''holotypus'') is a single physical example (or illustration) of an organism used when the species (or lower-ranked taxon) was formally described. It is either the single such physical example (or illustration) or one of several examples, but explicitly designated as the holotype. Under the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN), a holotype is one of several kinds of name-bearing types. In the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN) and ICZN, the definitions of types are similar in intent but not identical in terminology or underlying concept. For example, the holotype for the butterfly '' Plebejus idas longinus'' is a preserved specimen of that subspecies, held by the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard University. In botany and mycology, an isotype is a duplicate of the holotype, generally pieces from the same individual plant or samples from the same genetic individual. A holotype is not necessarily "ty ...

Hungarian Natural History Museum
The Hungarian Natural History Museum () in Budapest, dating back to 1802, houses the largest natural history collections of Hungary and the region. History of the museum Foundation In 1802, Count Ferenc Széchényi offered his library and his numismatic collection for the benefit of the Hungarian nation, so as to establish the base of a future national library, and a scientific and education center. This foundation gave rise to the Hungarian National Museum (and the Széchényi Library). Within the museum, the mineral collection of Julianna Festetics, the wife of the count, served as the origin of the future natural history collections. The first paleontological collection was a gift of Archduke Rainer in 1811, and the first zoological collection was bought in the same year. In 1818 the late Pál Kitaibel's herbarium was offered to the museum, giving rise to the new Botanical department. At the time of Hungary's revolution against the Austrian Empire in 1848, the miner ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
