The only Pegomya from Mexico on Chenopodiaceae in Griffiths' revision belong to the hyoscami section (see http://bugguide.n...ew/1210179). The dorsimaculata species group is also in Mexico but there are no published host records. |

Thank you very much John. I will examine the sternites. Could you provide me the reference of that publication? |

The scan is from the series Flies of the Nearctic Region edited by Graham Griffiths. The scan is from volume 8, part 2, number 1. Volume 8, part 2 is Anthomyiidae. The numbers and included genera are: 1-3 Pegomya 3 Emmesomyia 3 Parapegomyia 4-5 Eutrichota 5 Pegoplata 5 Myopina 5-6 Calythea 6 Paradelia 6-7 Alliopsis 7-10 Delia 11 Leucophora 11 Eustalomyia 11 Heterostylodes 11 Boreophorbia 11 Oxyphorbia 11-12 Phorbia 12 Hydrophoria 12-13 Zaphne 13 Paregle 13 Acridomyia 13 Adia 13 Hylemya 13 Anthomyia 14 Egle 14 Lasiomma 15 Strobilomyia 15 Chirosia Some genera are not included because Griffiths died before completing the project. I asked an expert who thinks the most likely species based on host and location is Pegomya exilis hernandezi. |
