Biology:Bremiola

From HandWiki

Bremiola is a genus of flies in the family Cecidomyiidae. The larvae induce galls on plants in the legume family.[1][2]

This genus is only known from the Palearctic, mostly from central Asia and eastern Europe.[1][3] Several species of Chalcidoid wasps are parasitoids of the larvae.[4]

Taxonomy

Bremiola was first described and named by German entomologist Ewald Heinrich Rübsaamen in 1915.[1] It is named after Johann Bremi-Wolf who described the type species - Bremiola onobrychidis (as Cecidomyia onobrychidis) - in 1847 based on a specimen collected in Switzerland.[1][2] All other species were first described and named by Russian entomologist Zoya Fedotova between 1984 and 1994 based on specimens collected in Kazakhstan.[1]
