“…Mathis and Rung (2011) compiled a global catalog of the Periscelididae. In the Neotropical Region, Ale-Rocha and Freitas (2011), Mathis et al (2012) and Ale-Rocha et al (2014) revised the Neotropical genera Neoscutops Malloch, 1926, Planinasus Cresson, 1913, and Marbenia Malloch, 1931 In this contribution we document the first records of Periscelididae for French Guiana. We provide a list of Periscelididae species and their known distribution based on the literature, new records and material examined.…”

“…Diagnosis. Planinasus can be distinguished from other genera of Periscelididae as follows: frons with a pair of interfrontal setae, 2 fronto-orbital setae, ocellar setae and postocellar setae absent, basal flagellomere arising from anterior surface of pedicel, costal vein extended to vein M, vein CuA 2 present, cell cup distinct, forefemur with 1-3 posteroventral setae on apical half, scutellum bearing only 1 pair of marginal setae, these apical, tibiae with a dorsoapical seta (Mathis et al 2012). Species of this genus exhibit considerable sexual dimorphism, especially on the width of the body and coloration of the face.…”

“…Planinasus occurs exclusively in the Neotropical Region and currently includes 18 extant and one fossil species. The genus was revised by Mathis et al (2012) Diagnosis. Planinasus nigritarsus (Figs 13,14) belongs to the nigritarsus species group together with P. argen tifacies and P. insulanus, sharing a mostly yellowish orange antenna with pedicel and basal flagellomere darkened dorsally, a single transverse row of about 8 large facial setae, and fore femur with 1 large posteroventral seta at apical third (Mathis et al 2012).…”

“…The family currently comprises about 139 valid species in 10 extant genera and 1 extinct genus (Procya mops, known from Baltic amber); 52 species occur in the Neotropical Region, distributed in 9 genera (Mathis and Rung 2011, Mathis et al 2012, Rung and Ale-Rocha 2011, Ale-Rocha et al 2014).…”

The families of Anthomyzidae, Aulacigastridae, Odoniidae, and Periscelididae of the Opomyzoidea are rare in nature and, therefore, little represented in collections. However, perhaps this rarity is because its natural history is little known and the appropriate collection methods have not yet been defined. Still, there are records of a considerable number of individuals from this group being captured. Trichoceridae, is a small family of insects in the order Diptera, the only one in the superfamily Trichoceroidea (Nematocera: Tipulomorpha). Apart from Trichoceridae, very few insects appear in adult form during the winter months. They are usually seen in the fall or early spring and can be seen on mild winter days. The objective of this manuscript is to carry out an inventory of the families Anthomyzidae, Aulacigastridae, Odoniidae, Periscelididae, and Trichoceridae. In summary, the following analysis steps were taken: · Exhaustive reading of each article aiming for a global understanding and discovery of the approach used by its authors; · Identification of the central ideas of each article; · Classification of ideas around meaning cores; · Comparison between the different meaning cores present in the articles studied; · Classification of the meaning cores into broader axes (themes) around which the authors' discussions revolved and · Writing interpretative summaries of each theme. After analyzing the contents of the articles, we sought to establish a dialogue between the themes found and the literature that served as the basis for introducing the present study.
