Abstract

Abstract Merope tuber Newman, 1838, commonly known as earwigflies or forcepflies, are an enigmatic member of Mecoptera that are known from eastern North America. Outside of collection localities and anatomy, relatively little is known about their behavior, reproduction, or any other aspect of their biology. In this manuscript, we report a new collection record of these uncommonly collected insects in Southold, Suffolk County, New York. While M. tuber are known from Ontario to Florida, their distribution is very discontinuous - this easily accessible field site represents new opportunities for future research, including the ongoing hunt for their larvae, which are currently unknown.

摘要:Merope tuber Newman, 1838，俗称earwigflies或forcepflies，是一种来自北美东部的Mecoptera的神秘成员。除了收集地点和解剖学之外，人们对它们的行为、繁殖或其他生物学方面的了解相对较少。在这篇手稿中，我们报告了这些不常见的昆虫在纽约萨福克县索索尔德的新收集记录。虽然从安大略省到佛罗里达州都有块茎分枝杆菌，但它们的分布非常不连续-这个容易到达的现场为未来的研究提供了新的机会，包括正在进行的对其幼虫的追捕，目前尚不清楚。
