Hello, I am realizing a PhD project "Revision of genus Gymnosoma (Diptera: Tachinidae) with using DNA analysis". For this project I am searching specimens of Gymnosoma species from Europe, especially: G. acrosterni G. brachypeltae G. carpocoridis G. costatum G. inornatum G. rungsi G. siculum I would be grateful for specimens of this species. I can offer some other tachinids species from Poland. Btw. Maybe someone have this paper inf pdf? C. Dupuis z 1963: Essai monographique sur les Phasiinae (Dipteres Tachinaires parasites d'Heteropteres), 461 pp, 73 figs. |

Hello!  Did you find a book of Dupuis? I am also trying to find this book. Do you have any books on the Phasiinae? |

Drogi Milosz All species you have mentioned are either very rare and/or very cryptic. FOr instance, carpocoridis should be distinguished only by the eggs, acoording to Dupuis. I'm not convinced (yet). so I can't tell you whether I have carpocoridis in my collection ! What are the specifications for the quality of material you need ? Fresh ? Not killed by ethylacetate ?

Yes, I know that this species are rare (and I would say also doubtful)... That is why I try to collect this species (even with not convinced determination). I can use all type of material: fresh/in alcohol/"ethylacetated"... I will also try to find "morphological key characters". |
