Guides
Berkshiria
Berkshiria is a genus of soldier flies in the family Stratiomyidae, established by Johnson in 1914. The genus contains two described species: B. albistylum (North America) and B. hungarica (Europe). It belongs to the subfamily Pachygastrinae, a group of small to medium-sized stratiomyid flies often associated with decaying organic matter.
Cosmariomyia
Cosmariomyia is a genus of soldier flies in the family Stratiomyidae, subfamily Pachygastrinae. The genus was established by Kertész in 1914 and contains three described species distributed in the Neotropical region. Members are small to medium-sized flies with relatively limited published information on their biology.
Cosmariomyia pallidipennis
Cosmariomyia pallidipennis is a species of soldier fly in the family Stratiomyidae. The species was described by Williston in 1901. It belongs to the subfamily Pachygastrinae, a group of small to minute soldier flies often associated with decaying organic matter. Very little is known about the biology or ecology of this particular species.
Eidalimus
Eidalimus is a genus of soldier flies (family Stratiomyidae) in the subfamily Pachygastrinae. The genus was established by Kertész in 1914 and contains eight described species distributed in the Nearctic and Neotropical regions. Species of this genus are small to medium-sized flies with relatively few detailed studies on their biology.
Eidalimus henshawi
Eidalimus henshawi is a species of soldier fly (family Stratiomyidae) in the subfamily Pachygastrinae. It was described by Malloch in 1917. The genus Eidalimus is part of a diverse group of Diptera characterized by larvae that develop in various decomposing organic substrates. As a member of Pachygastrinae, it belongs to a subfamily whose members often have reduced wing venation and compact body forms.
Gowdeyana punctifera
Gowdeyana punctifera is a soldier fly species in the family Stratiomyidae, subfamily Pachygastrinae. First described by Malloch in 1915, this species has been recorded across much of North America. The genus Gowdeyana contains relatively few described species, and this taxon remains poorly documented in the scientific literature.
