New Replacement Names in the Family Ulidiidae (Diptera, Cyclorrhapha) [Íîâûå çàìåùàþùèå íàçâàíèÿ â
ñåìåéñòâå Ulidiidae (Diptera, Cyclorrhapha)]. – Phaeosoma Becker, 1907 (type species: Phaeosoma nigricornis
Becker, 1907, by monotypy) originally was established as a genus. Later, it was considered either as a subgenus
of Hypochra Loew, 1868 (Hennig, 1939, Die Fliegen der palaearktischen Region, 5, Fam. 46/47: 41) or as a
separate genus (Soós, 1971, Acta Zool. Acad. Sci. Hung. 17, 3—4: 357, 1984, Catalogue of Palaearctic Dip-
tera, 9: 50). Since the limits of the genus Melieria Robineau-Desvoidy were revised to include both Hypochra
and Phaeosoma (Kameneva, 1996, Vestn. zool. [30], 6: 28), all the species assigned by Soós (op. cit.) to the
latter must be transferred to Melieria. As a result of such a transfer, 2 new homonyms appear. Herein, 2 names
are proposed instead of junior subjective homonyms: Melieria (Phaeosoma) soosi Kameneva, nom. n. for Me-
lieria (Phaeosoma) mongolica (Soós, 1971) (= Phaeosoma mongolicum Soós, 1971), non Melieria mongolica
Soós, 1971 and Melieria (Phaeosoma) theodori Kameneva, nom. n. for Melieria (Phaeosoma) obscuricornis
(Becker, 1907) (= Melieria <sic!> obscuricornis Becker, 1907), non Melieria obscuricornis (Loew, 1873)
(= Ceroxys obscuricornis Loew, 1873). The species are named for Árpad Soós (1912—1991) and Theodor
Becker (1840—1928), the two famous classics of dipterology who originally described these species, in recogni-
tion of their great contribution into study of palaearctic picture-winged flies. – E. P. Kameneva (Schmal-
hausen Institute of Zoology, Kyiv).

New Synonyms of Euxesta pechumani (Diptera, Ulidiidae) [Íîâûå ñèíîíèìû Euxesta pechumani (Diptera,
Ulidiidae)]. – Primarily, this species was found in Italy after the World War I on dead and wounded trees and
misidentified as “Euxesta nitidiventris Loew” (Bezzi, 1922). As no early records were known, Bezzi suggested
that it was introduced with plants from the New World during the war. Later, Szilády (1936), Hennig (1940)
and Soós (1941) also mentioned it as “E. nitidiventris”, but approximately the same time Pechuman (1937)
reared it from larvae living under the bark of Ulmus americana in the east of North America and Curran
(1938) described as Euxesta pechumani Curran (type locality: New York). Later it was found to occur in Slo-
vakia (Zuska, 1967); then in 1954 it was captured in the south of the Ukraine, and in 1981 also in
Turkmenistan (Êàìåíåâà, 1992). After that, Rivosecchi (1995) recorded it from Spain, and Merz (1998) from
Switzerland. Recently, specimens of this species were collected in the North Caucasus and Israel (new re-
cords). This shows rather clearly that there is an introduced population associated apparently with elms in
western Palaearctic. Several years ago, Krivosheina and Krivosheina (1995; 1997) described E. stackelbergi
Krivosheina et Krivosheina from Turkmenistan (reared from Ulmus foliacea) and E. freyi Krivosheina et
Krivosheina from Azores. Diagnoses of the both species fit well that of E. pechumani differing in the minute
details of coloration of legs, halteres, head and its appendages, wing pattern and the width of the frons. From
the study of large, mostly reared series from Israel, I came at the conclusion that the key characters of this
species are more variable than Krivosheina and Krivosheina presumed, and that the differences of
E. stackelbergi and E. freyi from E. pechumani do not exceed the intraspecific variability of the latter species.
Therefore, the following synonymy is established: Euxesta pechumani Curran, 1938 = Euxesta stackelbergi
Krivosheina et Krivosheina, 1995, syn. n. = Euxesta freyi Krivosheina et Krivosheina, 1997, syn. n. Material
examined: Portugal (Azores Islands): Flores Vales, VI, { (Storå); San Jorge, Ribeira Funda, 16.VI, } (Frey)
(paratypes of E. freyi) (ZMH); Switzerland: “TI [Ticino=Tessin], 220 m, Gordola-Bolle, 19.VI.1995”, {
(Merz & Bächli), idem, 1.VIII.1993, 2 } (Merz & Eggenberger) (CBM); Ukraine: Zaporizhzhya Oblast,
Berdyans’k, VIII.1954, } (collector not known) (SIZK); Russia, North Caucasus: Northern Osetia, 15 km N
of Ardon, 18.VII.1988, } (Ozerov); Turkmenistan: W Kopetdagh, Ay-Dere Ravine, 30.IV.1981, { (Ozerov)
(ZMUM); Geok-Tepe, Babarab, reared ex bark of Ulmus foliacea Gilib., IV.1989, {, } (Krivosheina) (para-
types of E. stackelbergi) (ZMHB); Israel: Ramat Gan, 20.I.1978, 15 {, 17 } (Kaplan); Tel Aviv, Savion, “ex
bark 16.IX—7.X.1982”, 11 {, 10 } (Y. Zvik) (TAU). I appreciate kindness of A. Freidberg, M. Kotrba,
B. Merz, G. Ståhls, A. Ozerov and V. Korneyev who put the material at my disposal and/or re-examined it on
my request. – E. P. Kameneva (Schmalhausen Institute of Zoology, Kyiv).
