A discussion is presented about the zoogeography of the Tipulidae known from the eastern Mediterranean islands; 54 nonendemic and 19 endemic species and subspecies are presently known from 25 islands. The non-endemic and endemic Tipulidae fauna of the islands close to Greece and Turkey is very similar to the fauna of the adjacent mainland. Older endemic as well as more widespread but relict species are found especially on the southern Aegean islands and on Cyprus. The Tipulidae fauna of the Kikládhes apparently is at large of quite recent, probably late Pleistocene origin. |

Craneflies of the family Tipulidae are a well-known group of the Diptera, consisting of large, long-legged nematocerous flies. Many species are more or less uniform yellow, grey or brown, but some are bright red or yellow and black. The wings can have extensive dark patterns. The subgenus Pterelachisus of the genus Tipula holds nine species in the Netherlands and in this paper species number 10 is introduced: T. (P.) trifascingulata. It is a rather conspicuous insect with a very characteristic wing pattern. It was only known from 25 records worldwide. In 2012, the year of discovery in the Netherlands, the species was found no less than nine times, in different parts of the country. This is an indication that the species has recently reached the... |
