Checklist of Diptera of the Czech Republic and Slovakia
Psychodidae Newman, 1834
Jan Ježek Department of Entomology, National Museum, Kunratice 1, CZ-148 00 Praha 4, Czech Republic; jan_jezek@nm.cz
Small nematocerous flies (1.0-5.0 mm), thickly clothed with hairs and scales ("moth flies"), the colour of the vestiture mainly greyish-white or blackish-brown; rather broad, lancet-shaped and often patterned wings, with ten or eleven veins mostly reaching the wing margin, radial and medial forks usually developed, wing membrane bare or haired; ocelli absent, number of antennomeres 14-16, flagellomeres with characteristic sensory filaments (ascoids); hypopygium of the inverse type, with gonopods (gonocoxite and gonostyle), aedeagal complex, epandrium and hypandrium, surstyli with different numbers of retinaculi. Sexual dimorphism often developed. Shape of female subgenital plate and cerci occasionally useful for identification. Adult Psychodinae are found in a wide range of wet habitats, including rotting organic material and manure. Females of Sycoracinae suck the blood of some Amphibia. The larvae of non-phlebotomine moth flies are saprophagous, coprophilous, urinophilic, cochliothelmic, mycobiontic, psammobiontic, petrimadicolous, limimadicolous, bryomadicolous and bryofluicolous, and are also found in phyto- and dendrotelmes or actively tunnel the rotting wood of fallen trees (Trichomyinae). The larvae of non-biting moth flies are mainly semiaquatic and are probably all shredders of detritus (decaying organic matter). In general, the adults have not been observed feeding in nature, but sweet solutions were successfully used in the laboratory (Jung 1956). Of the world subfamilies Phlebotominae, Bruchomyinae, Horaiellinae, Sycoracinae, Trichomyinae and Psychodinae, only the last three occur in Central Europe. Altogether almost 500 species are known to occur in Europe and the adjacent island areas (Wagner 2004), and 157 are listed in the present checklist: 148 in the Czech Republic (127 in Bohemia, 123 in Moravia) and 89 in Slovakia. Since the last version of the checklist, the number of species in the Czech Republic has increased by 46 (35 in Bohemia, 51 in Moravia) and in Slovakia by 24. The species-richness of the psychodid fauna in the Czech Republic is continualy increasing, and our knowledge of the moth flies in Slovakia is comparable but there are fewer species. The basic characteristics of the family and useful keys have been given by Freeman (1950), Jung (1956), Rozkošný (1980), Szabó (1983), Tanasijchuk (1969), Vaillant (1971-1983), Wagner (1997) and Withers (1989). Some faunistic data from the Czech Republic and Slovakia were summarized by Ježek (2003) and completed by Bulánková (2003). The nomenclature used in the present checklist agrees only in some respects with the Fauna Europaea (Wagner 2004): there are differing and controversial taxonomic and nomenclatural views on this family currently being published, and it is not appropriate to discuss them in this very brief introduction. This study was supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic (grant No. MK00002327201).
