Revision of Claraeola (Diptera, Pipunculidae) in the Middle East based on morphology and DNA barcodes

The Middle East species of Claraeola Aczél (Diptera, Pipunculidae) are revised based on morphological characteristics and sequence data from the mitochondrial COI barcoding gene, using a novel COI mini-barcode protocol. Four new Claraeola species are described: C.bousynterga Motamedinia & Skevin...

description The Middle East species of Claraeola Aczél (Diptera, Pipunculidae) are revised based on morphological characteristics and sequence data from the mitochondrial COI barcoding gene, using a novel COI mini-barcode protocol. Four new Claraeola species are described: C.bousynterga Motamedinia & Skevington, sp. nov., C.heidiae Motamedinia & Skevington, sp. nov., C.khuzestanensis Motamedinia & Skevington, sp. nov., and C.mantisphalliga Motamedinia & Skevington, sp. nov.Eudorylasthekkadiensis Kapoor, Grewal & Sharma, 1987 is transferred to Claraeola, C.thekkadiensis (comb. nov.). Diagnoses, illustrations, an identification key, and a distributional map are given for the Middle East species.
