Anthophilina variegata Loew, 1863: 324 View in CoL ; OSTEN SACKEN (1878): 198 (catalogue).

Anthomyza variegata: CZERNY (1902) View in CoL : 251 (key), 254 (list); ALDRICH (1905): 645 (catalogue); MELANDER (1913): 293 (key, distribution); SABROSKY (1965): 819 (catalogue); COLE (1969): 436 (distribution); ROHÁĆEK (1998a): 173 (checklist).

Type material. LECTOTYPE: ♂ (designated herewith): “variegata m.” (Loew’s handwriting), “Loew Coll.”, “ Type 13428” (red label), “ LECTOTYPUS ♂ Anthophilina variegata Loew, J. Roháček & K. N. Barber des. 2013” (red) and “ Anthomyza variegata (Loew) ♂, J. Roháček & K. N. Barber det. 2013”. The specimen is in good condition, with clearly visible genitalia (see Fig. 381 View Figs 381–384 ) ( MCZC, intact) . PARALECTOTYPE: ♀, “36”, “D. C.”, “Loew Coll.”, “Type 13428” (red label), “ PARALECTOTYPUS ♀ Anthophilina variegata Loew, J. Roháček & K. N. Barber des. 2013” (red) and “ Anthomyza variegata (Loew) ♀, J. Roháček & K. N. Barber det. 2013” ( MCZC, intact).According to the original description ( LOEW 1863), these specimens originate from USA: District [of] Columbia and were collected by Osten Sacken. Both type specimens belong to the pale form (see below). The lectotype and paralectotype are designated because LOEW (1863) did not explicitly enumerate specimens he used for the description and owing to the necessity to nx the status of the species inasmuch as there are another three closely related Nearctic species hitherto confused under the name A. variegata .

Redescription. Male. Total body length 2.04–3.14 mm; general colour largely yellow but with variable ochreous to greyish brown darkening on mesonotum, brownish dorsal band on pleuron ( Fig. 381 View Figs 381–384 ) and partly brown preabdominal terga. Head slightly longer than high to as long as high (thus less elongate than in A. gibbiger and A. orthogibbus ), anteriorly slightly angular in pronle because of distinctly receding face. Head dichroic, occurring in two colour forms. Pale form has head almost completely yellow (with only some brownish darkening of ocellar triangle) while dark form has face and 1st antennal nagellomere dark brown and sides of occiput brown (see also below). Occiput slightly concave, laterally darker yellow (pale form) or brown (dark form), medially yellow; in yellow medial area there are two elongate spots of silvery white microtomentum meeting ventrally above foramen. Frons rather narrow, yellow to orange yellow; ocellar triangle (at least partly) brown; frontal triangle dull yellow, margined by very narrow, darker orange and somewhat golden glittering stripes. Anterior parts of frons often darker, orange yellow and dull. Orbits pale yellow, silvery whitish microtomentose, more so in front of anterior long ors. Frontal triangle narrow, reaching to anterior third of frons. Frontal lunule minute, pale yellow. Face narrow, medially concave or folded, either dull yellow and separated from parafacialia by golden orange marginal stripe (pale form) or brown to blackish brown with darker marginal stripe (dark form); parafacialia and gena whitish yellow to white, with silvery white microtomentum; marginal stripe of gena narrow and yellow; postgena and mouthparts yellow in both forms. Cephalic chaetotaxy: pvt relatively long, strongly crossed; oc usually longest of cephalic setae; vti somewhat shorter than oc; posterior ors often almost as long as vti, vte usually shorter than vti; 3 ors but only posterior and middle ors long (middle ors slightly shorter than posterior ors), anterior ors reduced to a short setula but still usually stronger than the medial frontal microsetulae and sometimes lengthened (2–3 times as long as medial microsetulae), rarely with an additional microsetula in front of the anterior ors; 2–3 pairs of medial microsetulae in anterior third of frons; 1 small setula behind vte; postocular setulae (9–12) very short, dorsally in dense row; postgena with several setulae and 2 short posteroventral setae; 1 long vi (as long as posterior ors), subvibrissa reduced, hardly longer than anterior peristomal; only 5–6 relatively long but nne peristomal setulae. Palpus yellow, with 1 ventral preapical seta and a series of (10–12) shorter setulae subapically and ventrally. Eye ovoid, broader anteroventrally, with longest diameter oblique and about 1.4–1.5 times as long as shortest. Shortest genal height about 0.14–0.15 times as long as shortest eye diameter. Antenna geniculate, yellow but 1st nagellomere either entirely yellow (pale form) or brown (also on inner side) with only base narrowly yellow (dark form) and always with very long white pilosity ( Fig. 395 View Figs 392–395 ). Arista with basal segments ochreous yellow and distal seta blackish brown, about 2.1 times as long as antenna, relatively long-ciliate (but shorter than in A. neglecta ).

Thorax slightly narrower than head, largely yellow ( Fig. 381 View Figs 381–384 ); scutum either largely yellow with ochreous grey to pale brownish sublateral bands and sometimes with a pair of short anteromedial ochreous stripes in addition (pale form) or largely pale brown to brownish grey with variable short yellow stripes anteromedially and yellow area in front of scutellum (dark form). Dorsum of thorax pale grey microtomentose and relatively dull. Humeral and notopleural areas yellow in both forms; scutellum yellow to dark ochreous. Pleural part of thorax more shining than scutum, yellow to whitish yellow, but always with narrow brown dorsal band extended from thoracic cervix almost to haltere. Postscutellum yellow, postnotum often darker ochreous. Thoracic chaetotaxy: 1 hu plus 1 hu setula; 2 npl (anterior longer than hu, posterior shorter); 1 relatively weak prs (about as long as hu); 1 sa (weak, as long as prs), 1 pa (hardly longer than sa); 2 long postsutural dc (the smaller anterior longer than anterior npl, posterior longest of thoracic setae) and 6–8 dc microsetae in front of them (the hindmost distinctly enlarged); 4 rows of ac microsetae on suture but only 2 rows between dc; hindmost ac pair longest and situated between posterior dc or beyond; 2 sc, laterobasal weak (shorter than sa), apical sc slightly shorter and thinner than posterior dc; in addition there are often 1–3 small erect setulae between apical sc (see Fig. 398 View Figs 396–400 ); 1 small nne ppl; 2 long stpl (anterior usually slightly shorter) and 4–5 upcurved setulae in dorsal half of sternopleuron, its ventral part with a cluster of 6–7 longer setae. Scutellum rounded triangular, somewhat nattened dorsally.

C with small sparse spinulae between apices of R 1 and R 2+3. R 2+3 long, bent parallel to C with apex distinctly upcurving; R 4+5 very slightly bent, usually subparallel with M; the latter almost straight. Cell dm long, moderately narrow; r-m situated slightly in front of the middle of cell dm. Apical portion of CuA 1 as long as or slightly longer than dm-cu and almost reaching wing margin; A 1 short, ending far from margin. Alula distinct, narrow.

Preabdominal terga (T1T5) largely brown, T1 completely brown but T2–T5 with large anteromedial areas yellow (usually shorter, narrower and darker on T2 and T3). T1–T5 subshining, relatively shortly and sparsely setose. T1 and T2 separate, only laterally fused. T2–T5 large, subequal in size, reaching onto lateroventral sides of abdomen. Preabdominal sterna pale yellow, relatively narrow and becoming wider posteriorly; S1 short and transverse, S2 slightly longer than wide, S3 as long as wide, S4 and S5 (widest sternum) slightly to distinctly transverse. S2–S5 densely setose, only S1 bare and with darker posterior marginal stripe. T6 very short, transverse, bare, almost unpigmented.

Epandrium ( Figs 385, 386 View Figs 385–391 ) pale yellow (contrasting with brown S8), moderately long and broad, densely setose, with 1 pair of distinctly longer and thicker setae; anal nssure relatively small, rounded subtriangular. Cercus rather small, pale, with nne setae, apical longest. Medandrium (see Fig. 385 View Figs 385–391 ) relatively high, dorsally narrowed, with dorsolateral corners simple, ventrally broadly emarginate, bare. Gonostylus ( Figs 385, 386, 391 View Figs 385–391 , 400 View Figs 396–400 ) simple, almost as long as epandrial height, relatively nat (externally slightly convex), of elongately oval outline, distally slightly pointed, apically posteriorly provided with 3 or 4 small and blunt teeth, micropubescent on most of outer side, with some longer setae on slightly concave inner side and at posterior margin. Its shape is somewhat variable (see extreme variant on Fig. 400 View Figs 396–400 ) but markedly different from those known in all relatives (cf. Figs 412 View Figs 406–412 , 429 View Figs 422–429 , 448 View Figs 441–448 and ROHÁĆEK 2006a: Figs 266 View Figs 260–266 , 281 View Figs 280–286 , 297 View Figs 294–298 ).

Phallapodeme moderately robust ( Fig. 390 View Figs 385–391 ), with basal part shortly forked, robust but pale fulcrum and distinctly bicuspidate, laterally projecting apex. Aedeagus ( Fig. 390 View Figs 385–391 ) with small phallophore and bind distiphallus. Saccus relatively short (compared to long nlum), vesicular, membranous, with small basal sclerite attached to base of nlum and armed with a number (12–14) of robust dark-pigmented spines. Filum robust, formed basally by two, distally by one long, curved sclerite; its apex with terminal curved and pointed projection and a number of tooth-like spines along dorsal surface ( Fig. 389 View Figs 385–391 ).

Dichroism of head reduced, face always pale: in pale form inner side of 1st nagellomere is yellow (outer side is brown except for basal margin) and occiput is largely yellow, at most with ochreous lateral darkening; in dark form 1st nagellomere is brown on both inner and outer sides and occiput is also brown laterally. Pattern of thoracic scutum variable as in male (pale and dark forms). Sternopleuron usually with more upcurved setulae (up to 7). Wing measurements: length 2.69–3.31 mm, width 0.83–1.13 mm, Cs 3: Cs 4 = 1.41–1.83, rm\dmcu: dm-cu = 2.27–2.73.

Discussion. Anthomyza variegata ( Loew, 1863) belongs to the Anthomyza neglecta group as diagnosed above. It seems to be most closely allied to A. dichroa on the basis of the following synapomorphies: caudal process of transandrium and adjacent basal membrane densely prickly spinose; female T7+S7 dorsally posteromedially interrupted or membranous. This pair also differs from the two remaining Nearctic species in having particularly long cilia on the 1st nagellomere (this character is shared with all Palaearctic species of the group) and in lacking the synapomorphies diagnosing the A. gibbiger + A. orthogibbus pair.

Besides the colour differences sometimes seen between sexes of anthomyzids (sexual dischroism), A. variegata and A. dichroa are further characterized by dichroism within each sex. This non-sexual dichroism (more strongly expressed in the males, see Figs 404, 405 View Figs 401–405 ), having pale and dark forms (no intermediates, pale form more common) that are usually both represented in populations of these species, is a hitherto unknown phenomenon in Anthomyzidae . A similar type of non-sexual dichroism also occurs in A. gibbiger where it is, however, restricted to males, but has not been found in A. orthogibbus and/or Palaearctic species of the A. neglecta group. Due to this colour variability and rather uniform external structures of A. variegata (and its relatives), it is sometimes difncult to recognize the species from only external characters (see the key below). Thus, A. variegata males can be best identined by a large and nat gonostylus ( Figs 391 View Figs 385–391 , 400 View Figs 396–400 ), and females can be diagnosed by a dorsally membranous (posteromedially interrupted) T7+S7 ( Fig. 394 View Figs 392–395 ) that has a large, dark posterior band and large ventrolateral pouch-like lobes ( Fig. 392 View Figs 392–395 ). Alternatively, the species can be recognized by the combination of a long-ciliate arista and 1st nagellomere ( Fig. 395 View Figs 392–395 ), a head that is about as long as high, and a long ctenidial spine. The presence of additional setulae on the scutellum ( Fig. 398 View Figs 396–400 ), although occurring in only some specimens, is extemely helpful in identifying the species.

Biology. FOOTE (2004) recorded A. variegata as swept from Carex stricta and C. lacustris Willd. , however, there was some ambiguity in the data presented – the text refers to six specimens swept from C. lacustris but only two specimens are listed in the table but as swept from C. stricta . The locality (Ohio: Kent – Horning Road Marsh) is certainly within the known range reported here for A. variegata , but since we have not seen these specimens their identity and the locality record must remain questionable. The associated assessment that “larvae of this stem-boring species overwinter in culms of the host plant” must also be connrmed as this may be extrapolation from FERRAR (1987). The relatively limited label data presented here indicate that possible host plants are likely to be graminoids. Unidentined species of Carex in association with Impatiens yielded specimens in two localities in southern Ontario (Rondeau P. Pk., Short Hills P. Pk.). There is some suggestion that mesic habitats under canopy (Ontario: Royal Botanical Gardens, Pelee Island, incl. Carex ) are acceptable, as are open riparian sites (Ontario: Burlington, Bromus inermis ) that also yielded specimens of A. dichroa . Other habitat references include “swamp margin”, “ fern bog”, and “marsh area”, along with variations on canopied sites such as “along stream in forest”, “university forest” and “humid forest along stream”. This species has been taken several times at lights or light traps, a behaviour shared only with A. dichroa of this species group, the latter more rarely collected in this manner. The night period for A. variegata is quite long (at least in Virginia) – 1 May (Virginia: Mt. Rogers) to 17 September (Virginia: Falls Church).

Distribution. Published records of A. variegata are from the United States of America: California ( MELANDER 1913, COLE 1969, SABROSKY 1965), District of Columbia ( LOEW 1863, OSTEN SACKEN 1878, MELANDER 1913, SABROSKY 1965), Georgia ( MELANDER 1913, SABROSKY 1965), Maine ( JOHNSON 1925, SABROSKY 1965), Massachusetts ( JOHNSON 1925), New Hampshire ( JOHNSON 1925), New Jersey ( ALDRICH 1905, MELANDER 1913), Ohio ( FOOTE 2004), Virginia ( SABROSKY 1965), Washington ( MELANDER 1913, COLE 1969, SABROSKY 1965). However, at least some of these records are likely based on misidentined specimens of the three related species described as new below (e.g. Washington records are likely of A. gibbiger ) or even pale members of the A. pallida group (specimens of the A. neglecta group are not yet known from California). The records for Maine have not been connrmed for A. variegata (we have not seen JOHNSON’ S (1925) specimens) although the state borders its known range; these records could represent A. dichroa , the only A. neglecta -group species known from the state. The distribution of A. variegata based on material examined can be summarized as follows: Canada: Ontario, Quebec; United States of America: Alabama, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia (see Table 2, Fig. 597 View Fig ). This species reaches further into the southeast than the other three species in the group, and is commonly collected in the northeastern United States.
