I'm making my database for Diptera families. It is much more complicated task than I thought. Could you help me with one of mysteries I found? In Netherlands checklist Platystomatidae have "C only with humeral break". One the other hand according Shtakelberg only Acartophthalmidae have C only with humeral break. To Platystomatidae lead teza "C without break". Which source is right? Nikita P.S. Another one related question, in case of Caliptrata, is there C break or not?

Hi Nikita, The Platystomatidae do have a costal break (at humeral position), so I am afraid Shtakelberg is wrong in this case. Just a quick glance at some pictures of wings of Calyptratae showed me that costal breaks are actually present. I suppose there are other members who can give you a more detailed answer on your Calyptratae question. Jan Willem |
