IN our universe, this would be Linnaemyia. Maybe in yours too ? Theo |

Always I thought that termination -mya wasn't correct but -myia... |

Some write -mya in some cases , some (like me) write always -myia. There is no such thing as correct spelling, it simply depends on the rules you follow. See previous posts on this matter. Theo |

Difficulty with that list is that it does not list distribution of species, the fauna can be vastly different across the NA continent. The species I listed have all been recorded in the NE where I live. |
