Aquatic dance flies (Diptera, Empididae, Clinocerinae and Hemerodromiinae) of Greece: species richness, distribution and description of five new species.

All records of aquatic dance flies (37 species in subfamily Clinocerinae and 10 species in subfamily Hemerodromiinae) from the territory of Greece are summarized, including previously unpublished data and data on five newly described species (Chelifera horvati Ivković & Sinclair, sp. n., Wiedemannia iphigeniae Ivković & Sinclair, sp. n., W. ljerkae Ivković & Sinclair, sp. n., W. nebulosa Ivković & Sinclair, sp. n. and W. pseudoberthelemyi Ivković & Sinclair, sp. n.). The new species are described and illustrated, the male terminalia of Clinocera megalatlantica (Vaillant) are illustrated and the distributions of all species within Greece are listed. The aquatic Empididae fauna of Greece consists of 47 species, with the following described species reported for the first time: Chelifera angusta Collin, Hemerodromia melangyna Collin, Clinocera megalatlantica, Kowarzia plectrum (Mik), Phaeobalia dimidiata (Loew), W. (Chamaedipsia) beckeri (Mik), W. (Philolutra) angelieri Vaillant and W. (P.) chvali Joost. A key to species of aquatic Empididae of Greece is provided for the first time. Information related to the European Ecoregions in which species were found is given. Compared to the other studied countries in the Balkans, the Greek species assemblage is most similar to that of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.

Introduction

The aquatic dance flies of the family () comprise the subfamilies and . Larvae mostly live in aquatic habitats and both larvae and adults are predators, primarily feeding on (Vaillant 1952, 1953, Werner and Pont 2003) and (Vaillant 1967, Harkrider 2000, Ivković et al. 2007). Adult are distinguished by raptorial forelegs and live and hunt in riparian vegetation. On the other hand, adult are primarily found on the surface of emergent wet stones or in moss mats (Wagner 1997, Ivković et al. 2007).

The aquatic dance fly fauna of Greece has been sporadically investigated during the last few decades. The first records were noted by Vaillant and Wagner (1990), Wagner (1981, 1990, 1995), Wagner and Horvat (1993), and recently by Ivković et al. (2012).

Distribution and diversity studies are of immense importance in studying factors that influence and determine diversity hotspots (Ivković and Plant 2015, Schmidt-Kloiber et al. 2017). The present paper is based on detailed analysis of all publications on Greek aquatic dance flies known to the authors. The authors have also contributed additional records of Greek aquatic dance flies resulting from the examination of specimens collected by colleagues who surveyed 258 sites sampled in the late 1980s and early 1990s. In addition, one new species of Macquart and four new species of Zetterstedt are herein described.

Material and methods

Specimen records. This paper is based on a review of the literature, and primarily on unpublished data and specimens from Bogdan Horvat’s study of the aquatic dance fly fauna of Greece. Wherever possible, each literature record and specimen record was georeferenced as precisely as possible using ArcGIS software. The names of taxa reflect current nomenclature and classifications (Sinclair 1995, Yang et al. 2007). The literature used for identifications included Engel (1939, 1940), Vaillant and Wagner (1990), Wagner (1981, 1990, 1995), Wagner and Horvat (1993) and Ivković et al. (2012). Locality records are listed for each species. A list of locality names including latitude, longitude, altitude and number codes (site ID) for the localities is presented in Table 1 and a map showing the locations of all the georeferenced sites is also provided (Fig. 1). Specimens were collected using sweep nets and by aspirator. They were preserved in 80% ethanol (EtOH). For the purpose of determination, male terminalia were dissected, boiled in 10% KOH and afterwards neutralized with acetic acid, rinsed in water and identified to species level; or they were macerated in hot 85% lactic acid and stored in 80% ethanol along with the remaining body parts in the same tube. In the genitalia illustrations, only the sockets of the setae are shown on the epandrium; the setae are not drawn. All specimens listed in the material examined sections were collected by Bogdan Horvat, Ignac Sivec, Hans Malicky and Reinhard Gerecke. Taxonomic diversity is considered at the level of subfamily, genus, subgenus and species. The European Ecoregions are those of Limnofauna Europaea (Illies 1978), where they are defined at a large European scale and based on the biogeography of aquatic macroinvertebrates.

Sampling sites of aquatic recorded from Greece (see Table 1 for codes).

Label data for primary types are cited from the top of the pin downward, with the data from each label in quotation marks. Labels are cited in full, with original spelling, punctuation, and dates, and label lines are delimited by a slash (/). Additional information is included in square [] brackets. The repository of each type is given in parentheses. Secondary type data are abridged and listed alphabetically. This study is based on material housed in the following institutions: Canadian National Collection of Insects, Ottawa, Canada (CNC); col. M. Ivković, University of Zagreb, Croatia (UZC); col. , Slovenian Museum of Natural History, Ljubljana, Slovenia (SMNH). Terms used for adult structures primarily follow those of Cumming and Wood (2009), except for the antenna and wing venation, where the terminologies of Stuckenberg (1999) and Saigusa (2006) are used, respectively. In the system outlined by Saigusa (2006), the dipteran wing vein A1 (as used in McAlpine 1981) is homologized with the mecopteran vein CuP, and consequently CuA1 (of McAlpine) is termed M4, whereas CuA2 is CuA, the anal cell is cell cua and the anal vein (A1+CuA2) is CuA+CuP. Homologies of the male terminalia follow those of Sinclair and Cumming (2006). Species of described herein will not be assigned to a subgenus because we consider current subgeneric concepts confused and mostly not monophyletic (Ivković et al. 2012).

Data analysis. A list of species was compiled from all specimen data (Table 2). Comparison of species richness and assemblage composition with published records from studied countries in the Balkans (Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Montenegro and Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia) was conducted by compiling species lists for those countries taken from Wagner (1981, 1995), Horvat (1993, 1995a, 1995b, 1997) and Ivković et al. (2013a, 2013b, 2014). A species by country matrix was constructed and the Sørensen Index of Similarity of each pairwise comparison (Table 3) was calculated using the Primer v6 software (Clarke and Gorley 2006).

Laterotergite with fine, pale setae. One pair of strong marginal scutellar setae, with many scattered setulae on disc.

Wing (Fig. 5) membrane infuscate, veins darker; 1 long basal costal seta extending almost to humeral crossvein. R2+3 dipped beneath pterostigma. Cell dm produced anteroapically. M1 and M2 originating separately, together or sometimes with a very short stem vein proximal to M1+2 fork. CuA+CuP appearing as crease. Pterostigma broad, circular to squarish, dark brown, extending faintly beyond R2+3. Squama with setulae. Halter pale, yellowish.

Legs mostly brown; fore femur with one stronger preapical anterior seta; uniformly covered with rows of small dark setulae. All coxae with longer setae anteriorly. Fore and mid femora ventrally with some longer setulae on proximal half.

Abdomen concolourous with thorax, covered in short setae. Terminalia (Figs 4, 8): hypandrium shorter than epandrium, bearing 4 pairs of setae. Epandrium subquadrate, covered with long dark setae especially ventrally and laterally; surstylus slender, digitiform. Clasping cercus with two long, slender, finger-like processes and small basal lobe with crown of spine-like setae on inner face apically; finger-like lobes with long setae distally; posterior finger-like lobe with inner cluster of stout setae at mid-length. Phallus more or less linear, very slender; distiphallus with distinct swelling at mid-length.

Female. Similar to male except pterostigma smaller, more elliptical, not extending beyond R2+3; cercus short, ovate and minutely pilose.

The species is named after the first author’s mother, Katica Ljerka Ivković, for all those things that mothers do for all of us.

sp. n. is known only from several localities in Greece. On the basis of the multiple slender lobes of the clasping cercus and distinct pterostigma, sp. n. appears closely related to (Mik, 1880) and (Bezzi, 1905) (see Engel 1918, 1940).

This species of is distinguished by the long gena and the mitten-shaped clasping cercus, which is extremely similar to that of Vaillant & Vinçon, 1987.

Male. Body length 3.5–4.1 mm, wing length 3.5–3.6 mm (colouration bleached by prolonged storage in alcohol). Head (Fig. 3) in lateral view higher than long; gena broad, three-quarters height of eye. Frons short, broader than face. Face wide, with distinct carina on lower margin, bare, lacking setae. One pair of short ocellar setae and one pair of vertical setae; about 6 distinct upper postocular setae; lower postocular setae finer and merging with longer setae on middle and lower occiput; few small setulae present on vertex and between ocellar area. Antenna brown; postpedicel and stylus minutely pubescent; scape longer than pedicel, with setulae dorsally; pedicel with complete circlet of apical setae; postpedicel apically pointed; stylus nearly twice length of postpedicel.

Mesonotum with 5 pairs of dorsocentral setae with short setulae interspersed. Acrostichal setae short and fine, biserial, extending to prescutellar depression; 1 strong postpronotal seta; 2–3 notopleural setae and several short setae of variable size; 1 presutural supra-alar seta and numerous small setulae; 1 postalar seta. Antepronotum with 1 pair of strong setae and a few shorter setae. Proepisternum with some fine setulae. Katepisternum with a few (1–3) setulae. Laterotergite with fine, pale setae. One pair of strong marginal scutellar setae with many scattered setae on disc.

Wing membrane infuscate, veins darker; 1 short basal costal seta ending before humeral crossvein. Cell dm produced anteroapically. Veins M1 and M2 originating together with short stem vein proximal to M1+2 fork. Vein CuA+CuP extremely faint. Pterostigma elongate, indistinct. Squama with setulae. Halter yellowish.

Legs mostly brown; fore femur with 1 strong preapical anterior seta; uniformly covered with rows of small dark setulae. All coxae with longer setae anteriorly. Fore and mid femora ventrally with some longer setulae on proximal half.

Abdomen concolourous with thorax, covered in short setae. Pubescence darker on tergites than sternites. Terminalia (Fig. 10): hypandrium subequal in length with epandrium, with 6 pairs of setae. Epandrium irregularly subquadrate, with 2–3 stouter and longer setae (shown by enlarged sockets) in addition to regular setae ventrally and laterally; surstylus very slender, hook-shaped. Clasping cercus yellowish-brown, broad, mitten-shaped, with thumb-like anterior lobe; posterior lobe truncate apically; thumb-like lobe with long outer setae; stout setae with multi-branched apex covering most of inner face of cercus. Phallus more or less linear, slender; distiphallus with swelling at mid-length.

Female. Similar to male. Terminalia: cercus short ovate and minutely pilose.

The species name is derived from the name because of the similarity of the clasping cercus with that of this species.

sp. n. is known only from parts of Greece. This new species differs from on the basis of the truncate posPageBreakterior lobe of the clasping cercus (pointed in ) and in having only a single preapical seta on the fore femur (2 in ). The odd stout setae with multi-branched tips on the inner face of the clasping cercus were not noted by Vaillant and Vinçon (1987) and the absence of the swelling on the distiphallus (Vaillant and Vinçon 1987, fig. 32) is likely an artefact caused by the acid clearing process. The holotype of was not examined.

Additional similar species that could be included in this group based on the shape of the clasping cercus include: Vaillant, 1967 (Pyrenees), Ivković & Sinclair, 2014 (Sierra Nevada, Spain), and Vaillant, 1956 (European Alps).

Results and discussion

Species richness and assemblage composition. A total of 47 species of aquatic empidids are recorded from Greece (Table 2), collected from 258 sites (Fig. 1, Table 1). The subfamily is represented by 37 species, in seven genera: Meigen (3 species), Engel (1 species), Macquart (5 species), Mik (4 species), (1 species), Coquillett (1 species) and PageBreak Zetterstedt (22 species). The subfamily is represented by 10 species, in two genera: (7 species) and Meigen (3 species) (Table 2). The genus is most species rich (46.8%), followed by the genus (14.9%) (Fig. 13). The Hellenic Western Balkan (Ecoregion 6) is the richest European Ecoregion with 42 species, while 20 species are recorded from the Eastern Balkan (Ecoregion 7), and 15 species occur in both ecoregions (Table 2). Most aquatic inhabiting Greece are widely distributed in Europe or more broadly, but 10 species are only known from mainland Greece or its islands (Table 2).

Figure 13.

Species richness of aquatic genera from Greece.

Greece supports at least 47 species, but this is unlikely to be the final number. Slovenia, situated in the northwest part of the Balkans, supports 58 species, Croatia 51 species, while Bosnia & Herzegovina, Montenegro and FYR Macedonia have 38, 34 and 34, respectively (Fig. 14). The Sørensen Index of Similarity showed that the fauna of Greece is most similar to that of FYR Macedonia followed by Bosnia & Herzegovina, whereas it is the least similar to that of Montenegro (Table 3).

Figure 14.

Comparison of the Greek aquatic assemblage with those of other Balkan countries.

We compared our list of Greek species with existing checklists in “Fauna Europaea” (Chvála 2012) and the World Catalogue of (Yang et al. 2007). The following species were not recorded from Greece in both these works: and from the subfamily , and , , , , and from the subfamily . They represent new country records. On the other hand, some species that are listed in Chvála (2012) and Yang et al. (2007) are not included in the present checklist. We omitted (Loew) because its presence has not been confirmed in Greece. However, it is possible that it does occur in Greece as it is present in surrounding countries (Chvála 2012, Horvat 1995b, 1997) and consequently it was included in the above key to species. Altogether, 13 species (including the new species) are recorded for the first time from Greece. The species richness of both subfamilies varies between European Ecoregions.

show greater species richness in mountainous areas of Europe (Vaillant 1982, Wagner and Gathmann 1996), and they are also more species rich in streams and rivers in the Balkans (Horvat 1993, 1995b, 1997, Ivković et al. 2007, 2010, 2012, 2013a, 2013b, 2014).

Comparison with neighbouring faunas. Greece has been divided into two ecoregions: Hellenic Western Balkan (Ecoregion 6) and Eastern Balkan (Ecoregion 7). The higher species richness is in the Hellenic Western Balkan Ecoregion, but the Eastern Balkan Ecoregion in Greece is much smaller, so this was an expected result. Greece supports at least 47 species, of which 10 are currently endemic to the country (, , , , , , , , , ). The higher number of species recorded for Slovenia and the far fewer species recorded, for instance, in Montenegro, FYR Macedonia and Bosnia & Herzegovina should be viewed with caution. Slovenia was well studied (Horvat 1995a) in comparison to other PageBreakBalkan countries, which were only studied sporadically (Horvat 1993, 1995b, 1997, Ivković et al. 2012, 2013b, 2014).

Our comparison of Sørensen Similarity indices shows that the FYR Macedonia assemblage has the greatest similarity with the Greek assemblage. This was expected since FYR Macedonia borders with Greece, so they have many species in common. The lowest similarity is with Montenegro, which was not expected as it is geographically much closer to Greece, but this could be due to undersampling of that country (Ivković et al. 2014).

Concluding remarks

The Greek aquatic fauna is composed of exclusively Palearctic taxa with the exception of , which is the most widespread clinocerine (known from North America, Asia, and North Africa) (Sinclair 2008). Most of the species are restricted to Europe or South Europe and some of them are only found in the Balkans and Greek islands (e.g., , , , and ). Some species have a small area of distribution, occurring in just one or a few sites (e.g., , , , , , , , , and ), and can be considered as Greek endemics.

There are still some genera of and that have not been recorded in Greece and that might be present, as they occur in surrounding countries (e.g., Mik, Macqaurt and Zetterstedt). Within Greece, most species were reported from the Hellenic Western Balkan Ecoregion; this was expected as this European Ecoregion covers most of the surface area of the country (Illies 1978) and it is considered a biodiversity hotspot (Kryštufek and Reed 2004). The checklist presented here only includes species for which good evidence exists of their presence in Greece. As explained previously, we have omitted any ambiguous or doubtful data and references. This paper may serve as a baseline for planning future work in Greece, but also in surrounding countries for which knowledge of the aquatic dance fly fauna is poor, such as Albania, Bulgaria and Turkey.
