Calycomyza verbenae
Calycomyza verbenae is a leaf miner fly in the family Agromyzidae. The species was described by Hering in 1951. It is associated with plants in the genus Verbena and related genera, where larvae create mines within leaves. Records indicate presence in the United States and Brazil (Pará).
Clinodiplosis verbenae
Clinodiplosis verbenae is a gall midge species in the family Cecidomyiidae, described by Beutenmüller in 1907. The specific epithet 'verbenae' indicates an association with plants in the genus Verbena. Like other members of Clinodiplosis, this species is presumed to induce galls on host plants, though specific gall morphology has not been well documented in accessible literature. The species is known from relatively few observations.
