Genus Clogmia View in CoL View at ENA Enderlein

Clogmia Enderlein, 1937: 87 View in CoL . Type species, Psychoda albipunctata Williston, 1893 View in CoL (orig. des., as Psychoda albipennis Williston, 1893 View in CoL , lapsus).

Lepiseodina Enderlein, 1937: 93 . Type species, Psychoda tristis Meigen, 1830 View in CoL (orig. des.).

Comm.: Clogmia View in CoL has been considered a junior synonym of the genus Telmatoscopus Eaton, 1904 ( Vaillant 1972) View in CoL , although most taxonomists currently accept its generic status. It is represented in Colombia by the following cosmopolitan species, widely adapted to anthropogenic habitats and has been identified in other countries as an agent of human myiasis ( Mohammed & Smith 1976, Kamimura & Arakawa 1986, Hyun et al. 2004, Tu et al. 2007, El-Badry et al. 2014) and as a potential mechanical vector of bacterial pathogens ( Faulde & Spiesberger 2013).
