Abstract

Ten aquatic species of Megaselia Rondani (1856) are reported from the internodes of the large bamboo Guadua angustifolia var. chacoensis in Bolivia. Megaselia aquatica sp. n., and M. imitatrix Borgmeier (1969) are named and seven species given code letters as their males remain unknown. Five of these species closely resemble the distinctive M. imitatrix. The eggs of species C, in addition to a subterminal plastron, uniquely have the rest of the egg covered in fine hairs. Three additional Megaselia species reported from bamboo or other phytotelms in the Americas, Megaselia hansonix Disney (2009), M. rufipes (Meigen) (1804) and M. scalaris (Loew) (1866) are illustrated. A key for Megaselia from the Americas reported from aquatic situations is presented.

玻利维亚大翅蝗水生新种记述(双翅目:蝗科)

本文报道了玻利维亚大竹（Guadua angustifolia var.chacoensis）节间的10个大型水生物种Megaselia Rondani（1856）。Megaselia aquatica sp.n.和M.模仿者Borgmeier（1969）被命名，七个物种被赋予了代码字母，因为它们的雄性仍然未知。其中五个物种与独特的模仿者M.模仿者非常相似。物种C的卵除了有一个近顶生质体外，其余部分都覆盖着细毛。说明了从美洲竹子或其他植物群落中报道的另外三种Megaselia物种，Megaselia hansonix Disney（2009）、M.rufipes（Meigen）（1804）和M.scalaris（Loew）（1866）。介绍了从水生情况中报告的美洲巨型selia的关键。

期刊介绍： Fragmenta entomologica is devoted to publishing high quality papers dealing with Arthropod biodiversity. It publishes research articles, short scientific notes, reviews articles, comments and editorials. The core scope of the journal includes Taxonomy, Systematics, Molecular phylogeny, Morphology, Paleontology, Biodiversity, Biogeography, Evolutionary biology, Conservation biology, Ecology, Ethology and Applied Entomology, and embraces all terrestrial, freshwater and brackish water Arthropods. Merely faunistic papers might be considered for publication only in the following cases: papers including relevant and significant new data emphasizing the conservation priority of rare, protected or endangered arthropods and their habitats; papers concerning with important newly introduced pest species; papers concerning with very poorly known geographic areas from scarcely investigated countries.
