A. Marshall^ ABSTRACT. The Central and South American family Inbiomyiidae with its single genus Inbiomyia Buck is revised, including descriptions of 10 new species: 1. acmophallus Buck sp. nov. (Colombia), I. anemosyris Buck sp. nov. (Colombia, Peru), I. matamata Buck sp. nov. (Venezuela, Colombia), I. pterygion Buck sp. nov. (Bolivia), 7. regina Buck sp. nov. (French Guiana), 7. exul Buck sp. nov. (Costa Rica, Ecuador), 7. empheres Buck sp. nov. (Ecuador), 7. anodonta Buck sp. nov. (Colombia), 7. scoliostylus Buck sp. nov. (Costa Rica), and 7. zeugodonta Buck sp. nov. (Colombia, Erench Guiana). Three species known from single females are briefly diagnosed but not named. A key to the 11 described species of Inbiomyia is provided. The species-level phylogenetic relationships are analyzed on the basis of a matrix of 35 morphological characters. Eour species groups are recognized: the 7. anemosyris group (7. acmophallus, 7. regina, 7. pterygion, 7. matamata, 7. anemosyris), the 7. exul group (7. exul, Inbiomyia species 1), the 7. mcalpineorum group (7. empheres, I. mcalpineorum, Inbiomyia species 2), and the 7. scoliostylus group (7. anodonta, 7. scoliostylus, 7. zeugodonta, Inbiomyia species 3). INTRODUCTION The family Inbiomyiidae, recently erected for the newly described Neotropical acalyptrate genus Inbiomyia Buck, 2006, is the fourth family of Cyclorrhapha to be described on the basis of a newly discovered group of flies in the past 50 years (i.e., excluding families erected through taxonomic “splitting”). None of the other 3 families, Xenasteiidae Flardy, 1980, Neminidae D.K. McAlpine, 1983 (originally as a subfamily of Aulacigastridae), and Marginidae D.K. McAlpine, 1991, occur in the New World. Inbiomyiidae is in fact the only valid family of Cyclorrhapha that has ever been described from the New World on the basis of a newly discovered genus. Other relatively recently erected families were based on genera described decades earlier, the most recent examples being Teratomyzidae Colless and D.K. McAlpine, 1970 (based on Teratomyza Malloch, 1933), and Syringogastridae do Prado, 1969 (based on Syringogaster Cresson, 1912). Inbiomyiidae are characterized by several high- ly unusual and unique morphological features of the head, male and female genitalia, and egg. Buck (2006) placed Inbiomyiidae as the sister group of the monotypic Australasian family Australimyzidae, within the superfamily Carnoi- dea. The larval biology of Inbiomyia remains unknown, but the unusual egg morphology suggests a specialized biology. So far, species of Inbiomyiidae have been found in 8 Central and South American countries from Guatemala in the north to Bolivia and French Guiana in the south. The actual range probably includes the entire 1-2.

Inbiomyii- dae occur in primary tropical forests (rain and cloud forest) from sea level to 2000 m, with the highest number of species found at low elevations. The morphology, biology, family relationships, and history of discovery of Inbiomyiidae were discussed in detail by Buck (2006). The family was described with the single included species Inbio- myia mcalpineorum Buck, 2006; we here add another 10 new species to the family and consider the distribution and phylogeny of the species. MATERIALS AND METHODS MORPHOLOGY AND TERMINOLOGY The morphological terminology largely follows J.E. McAlpine (1981a). Postabdominal features were exam- ined on specimens cleared in hot 10% KOH and subsequently neutralized in glacial acetic acid. Eggs were obtained by dissection from cleared abdomens of gravid females (museum specimens). Dissected parts are kept in glycerine in a microvial with the specimen. PHOTOGRAPHY The habitus photograph (Eig. 1) was taken with a Microptics Digital Lab XLT imaging system using a Canon EOS 1 Ds camera and Microptics ML- 1000 flash fiber optic illumination system. Each image was assembled from a series of photographs (with different focal planes) using the computer freeware CombineZ (Hadley, 2005). Wing and egg photographs (Eigs. 9, 10, 13) were taken with a Nikon Coolpix 4500 digital camera mounted on a Zeiss compound microscope. PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS Parsimony analysis of the character matrix was performed with PAUP"' 4.

The Bremer value for a certain branch indicates the minimum number of additional steps (compared to the most parsimonious tree[s]) that is required to generate a tree (or trees) in which the branch in question is unresolved. High Bremer values therefore indicate strong branch support. ABBREVIATIONS Costal ratios: e.g., Cs2/Cs3 = length of costal sector 2/ length of costal sector 3. Costal sector 2 is measured between the apices of R] and R2+3, Cs3 between apices of R2+3 and R4+5, and Cs4 between apices of R4+5 and M (Fig. 10).

Inbiomyia (Inbiomyiidae) can be identified using the key to Neotropical Diptera families by Buck et al. (in press). The following characters are diagnostic: small, acalyptrate flies 6 ■ Contributions in Science, Number 512 Buck and Marshall: Revision of Inbiomyiidae Table 1 Character state matrix for described species of Inbiomyia. Australimyzidae, the sister group of Inbiomyiidae, served as outgroup for the analysis.

In previously published keys, Inbiomyia runs to Aulacigastridae (e.g., J.F. McAlpine, 1981b) or does not key out properly (e.g., Hennig, 1973: conflict at couplet 138). BIOLOGY. There are no direct observations on the biology of Inbiomyia. Adults are apparently microbial grazers as can be concluded from the substantial amounts of fungal, algal (including diatoms), and probably bacterial material found in the guts of dissected specimens. Nearly 80% of the currently known material of Inbiomyia {ca. 220 specimens in total) was collected in Malaise traps, another 16% in pan traps placed in decaying vegetation (mostly decaying foliage of fallen trees). The junior author observed an adult of an unidentified species on green leaves of a recently fallen tree at Kara Avis (Heredia, Costa Rica). The presence of adults on decaying plant matter suggests a phytosaprophagous larval bi- ology (larvae feeding on the microbial flora of the substrate). However, the comparatively large egg size and low number of mature eggs per female (1-4 in dissected specimens) is unusual for species developing in a nutrient-rich, rapidly decaying, ephemeral food source. Most Diptera that exploit this type of substrates are r-strategists and pro- duce large numbers of relatively small eggs. The unusual egg morphology, which is reminiscent of macrotype Tachinidae eggs, could be indicative of a more specialized, possibly parasitic, lifestyle. SPECIES-LEVEL PHYLOGENY OE INBIOMYIA Characters Used in Phylogenetic Analysis Characters were polarized based on the putative outgroup Australimyzidae (Buck, 2006). No additional outgroups were taken into consider- ation because the sister group of Inbiomyiidae + Australimyzidae is uncertain (Carnidae are the putative sister group of Inbiomyiidae + Australi- myzidae, but support for this relationship is weak; see Buck, 2006). Inbiomyiidae and Australimyzi- dae have diverged considerably, especially in male and female postabdominal features. Fourteen of the 35 characters (Table 1), mostly male genitalic characters, could therefore not be polarized through outgroup comparison. Eleven of these characters could be polarized a posteriori (i.e., after the parsimony analysis; see “ancestor” in Table 1) using the “functional ingroup-functional outgroup” (“FIG-FOG”) approach (Watrous and Wheeler, 1981). The polarity of 3 characters (12, 22, 28) remains ambiguous. In the following list of characters, apomorphic states are coded with “1” or “2” and plesio- morphic states with “0” (except characters 12, 22, 28). Character 21 is ordered. Polarities of characters denoted by asterisks ('•') were estab- lished a posteriori.

Four species groups are recog- nized: the I. anemosyris group (/. acmophallus, I. regina^ 1. pterygion, I. matamata, I. anemosyris), the /. mcalpineorum group (/. empheres, 1. mcalpineorum), the I. exul group (I. exul), and the I. scoliostylus group (/. anodonta, I. scolio- stylus, I. zeugodonta). The latter 3 groups each include 1 unnamed species (see species accounts below), which were not included in the analysis because they are known from females only. Most species groups are well defined and show moder- ate to high Bremer support. The exception is the 1. scoliostylus group, which is well supported only if L anodonta is excluded. The latter shares only 1 synapomorphy with the remainder of the species (character 20, state 1), which occurs convergently in I. acmophallus -l- /. regina. Biogeography The /. anemosyris group is the only species group of Inbiomyia restricted to South America. All other groups are represented in both Central and South America. Because of the still fragmentary knowledge on Inbiomyia (many species still to be discovered, poorly known species distributions), it 8 ■ Contributions in Science, Number 512 is difficult to develop meaningful hypotheses on the phylogeography of the group. Interestingly, all Central American species have their sister species in South America (/. exul, occurring in both South and Central America, and its Central American sister species, Inbiomyia sp. 1, represent a special case). On the basis of current phylogeny, it appears most likely that the stem species of Inbiomyia lived in South America, and its descendants colonized Central America on at least 3 different occasions.

The male of this species is characterized by a peculiar, anvil-shaped epiphal- lus. It is distinguished from I. pterygion, the only other species with an apically expanded epiphal- lus, by the surstylus, which bears 1-2 bristles on the dorsal margin of the expanded apical portion (absent in I. pterygion) and has an irregular fringe of long bristles (regular in /. pterygion). The female can be diagnosed by the uniformly dark brown pleuron, entire tergite 7, and pale tergite 8. ETYMOLOGY. The species name is used as a noun in apposition and refers to the anvil- shaped epiphallus (Gr. akmon: anvil). 12 ■ Contributions in Science, Number 512 Inhiomyia anemosyris Buck sp. nov.

The male genitalic characters most closely resemble L matamata and I. pter- ygion. From the latter it can easily be distin- guished by the simple (not apically expanded) epiphallus. From the former it differs by the contrastingly colored pleuron, the twisted disti- phallus, and the chaetotaxy of the surstyli (see /. matamata below). The female can be separated from all other species by the peculiar, asymmet- rically egg-shaped spermatheca. ETYMOLOGY. This species is named for the characteristic surstylus, whose regular fringe of long bristles resembles a fan (Gr. anemosyris: a kind of fan). The specific name is a noun in apposition.

The male genitalia of this species closely resemble I. anemosyris with exception of the distally expanded epiphailus, which is similar to I. acmophallus. It can be distinguished from the latter by the elliptical perianal field, the surstylus, which has its fringe of marginal bristles arranged in a regular row, and the ventral epandrial process, which lacks blunt-tipped medial bristles. ETYMOLOGY. This species is named for the peculiar shape of its epiphailus, which resembles the tail fin of a cetacean (Gr. pterygion: fin). The species name is used as a noun in apposition.

The male and female genitalic characters of this species are similar to L acmophallus, whereas body coloration and facial sclerotization resembles I. anemosyris. The bilo- bate apex of the ventral epandrial process, the outwardly curved, slender postgonites, and the characteristic surstylus immediately distinguish the male of I. regina from all other species. The female can be recognized by the combination of an unevenly pigmented sternite 7, glossy ocellar plate (devoid of microtomentum), and bicolored pleuron. ETYMOLOGY.

This species differs from all other species by the contrastingly bicolored pleuron, the presence of a forked, ventral hypandrial process and the absence of postgonites. One undescribed species from Guatemala that is known from 1 female only (see sp. 1 below) shares the distinctive pleural coloration and probably has similar male genitalia. ETYMOLOGY. Inbiomyia exul has highly unusual male genitalia that are unique within the genus.

Inbiomyia anodonta is the only species in the /. scoliostylus group that lacks the stout, peglike bristles of the surstylus. It differs from all other species in the genus by the greatly expanded apical portion of the surstylus that bears both an apical row of bristles as well as several discal bristles. The bristles of the apical row are few in number and more widely spaced than usual. A further diagnostic character is the very stout postgonite with its very broad base. ETYMOLOGY. The species name is a latinized adjective and refers to the lack of toothlike bristles of the surstylus (Gr. odous, odontos: tooth). Inbiomyia scoliostylus Buck sp. nov.

This species is easily recognized by its characteristic biangulate ventral epandrial process and in the female by the combination of a medially divided tergite 7 and a large anterior apodeme to tergite 8. Inbiomyia zeugodonta, the only other species with medially divided tergite 7, has a smaller anterior apodeme to tergite 8 and a contrastingly colored pleuron. ETYMOLOGY. The species name is a noun in apposition and refers to the bent ventral epandrial process (Gr. skolios: curved, bent). Inbiomyia zeugodonta Buck sp. nov. Figs. 12, 82-88 ADULT. Wing length 1.36-1.46 mm {$), 1.51-1.59 mm ($). Sclerotized portions of head medium to dark brown excluding medium to pale brown face and brownish yellow prementum. Antenna and palpus yellowish brown, almost concolorous with forecoxa and distinctly paler than frons. Frons beside the strong orbital bristle with 3 orbital hairs (posterior one often larger than anterior ones) and a pair of ocellar setulae. Ocellar plate sparsely microtomentose. Thorax distinctly bicolored. Lower pleuron yellow to brownish yellow, proepisternum, anepisternum, and anterior and posterior third of anepimeron medium to dark brown (concolorous with scu- tum); middle third of anepimeron and postnotum medium to pale brown. Acrostichal rows of hairs extending posteriorly about halfway between levels of posterior 2 pairs of dorsocentral bristles. Anterior pair of scutellar bristles one-third to two- fifths as long as posterior one, distinctly longer and more robust than acrostichal hairs. Legs including forecoxa brownish yellow. Antero- and posteroventral rows of bristles of forefemur slightly stronger and darker in male than in female; bristles of posteroventral row about as strong as those of anteroventral row in both sexes.

Abdominal tergites dark brown. MALE TERMINALIA (Figs. 83-88). Ventral portion of synsternite 5-I-6-I-7 relatively broad, with more or less straight hind margin (Fig. 86). Ring-shaped sclerite well developed. Epandrium Buck and Marshall: Revision of Inbiomyiidae dark brown, dorsally with a pair of anterior apodemes (Fig. 84: ap), ventrally continuous with subanal plate, which is well sclerotized and concolorous with epandrium. Subanal plate form- ing an obtuse angle with posterior margin of epandrium in lateral view. Perianal field elliptical (Fig. 85). Ventral epandrial process (Fig. 87) pale to medium brown (excluding darker base), longer than surstylus, gently curved posteriorly in lateral view and curved medially in anteroposterior view; apical half (excluding apex) with several bristles of moderate length; apex spatulate with a group of short sensilla trichodea on anterior surface and 2-3 bristles on posterior surface. Surstylus (Fig. 84) pale to medium brown, directed postero- ventrally; stem gradually becoming wider distally and apical expansion small, with 2 stout, peglike bristles; disk and margin with scattered bristles only, marginal fringe not developed. Hypandrium narrowly articulated with anteroventral corner of epandrium (anterodorsal to articulation area of ventral epandrial process), with small emargina- tion between posterior arms (as in Buck, 2006: fig. 4E). Postgonite (Fig. 83) brown, long, di- rected ventrally (Fig. 85), apex slightly dilated; apical margin with ca. 4 stout, peglike bristles and ca. 4 short, more slender, blunt-tipped bristles, otherwise with short setulae only. Basiphallus pale brownish. Epiphallus (Fig. 88) of moderate length, longitudinally striate, relatively broad with rounded apex, slightly curved posteriorly in lateral view. Distiphallus (Fig. 88) moderately long, ventral surface with sparse, short, incon- spicuous microtrichia. FEMALE TERMINALIA (Fig. 82). Tergite 7 narrowly divided medially, laterally free from sternite. Sternite 7 evenly pigmented. Tergite 8 paler than dark brown preceding tergites (except medially along anterior margin), with broad but short anterior apodeme, posterior margin trun- cate medially. Spermatheca moderately sclero- tized, medium brown, tire-shaped with small central invagination and laterally inserted duct. EGG (Fig. 12). Almost identical to I. acrno- phallus but slightly wider (length 0.39 mm, width 0.23 mm) and micropylar pole more projecting. TYPE MATERIAL. Holotype.

Cerda (2$, LACM); same as previous but iii.2005 (1?, LACM). Note: Females that are not associated with males are tentatively identified as L zeugo- donta. DIAGNOSIS. Inbiomyia zeugodonta resembles /. scoliostylus in possessing a surstylus with 2 stout, peglike bristles. It differs from that species by the curved (not angulate) ventral epandrial process, the contrastingly colored pleuron, and, in the female, the shorter anterior apodeme of tergite 8. ETYMOLOGY. The species name refers to the paired, stout, toothlike bristles of the surstylus (Gr. zeugos: team, pair; Gr. odous, odontos: tooth). The species name represents a latinized adjective.

This species shares the well-developed chaetotaxy with I. scoliostylus and /. zeugodonta: Inner vertical bristle longer than outer vertical and almost as long as orbital bristle, ocellar and postocellar setulae present; postpronotal bristle well developed, 3-4 dorsocentral setulae between postsutural and pre- scutellar dorsocentral bristles; anterior pair of scutellar bristles 0.4 X as long as posterior pair. Spermatheca tire-shaped. Inbiomyia sp. 3 differs from the species of the /. scoliostylus group by the fused tergite and sternite of segment 7. 30 ■ Contributions in Science, Number 512 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We would like to thank B.V.
