Chloropidae, Oscinellinae: Calamoncosis minima (Strobl, 1893). This is the most abundant Calamoncosis species in central Europe. It develops predominantly in the galls of our 4 common Lipara species as an inquiline and can be reared in large numbers. That demonstrates that very small and very large specimens (as in the image] belong to the same species. In the lower photograph the tiny species-specific tubercles at the edge of the scutellum are detectable. Furthermore the wings are not milky-white [compared with duinensis (Strobl)]. Both, aprica (Meigen) and duinensis also were reared by the writer from Lipara galls! Calamoncosis is the sister genus of Lipara Meigen, 1830. |
