Background: Here, for the first time, we report a barcoding survey of the dipterian family Ulidiidae (with two subfamilies Ulidiinae and Otitinae) coupled with morphology. To date, this is the first comprehensive analysis of the family that relies on molecular data. To reconstruct probable higher-level phylogenetic relationships between the genera of Ulidiidae, we exploited maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference, and additionally, we utilized a modern Markov model of codon substitutions for protein-coding genes coupled with the maximum likelihood approach to establish more realistic evolutionary scenarios connecting Ulidiinae and Otitinae. Results: Though we found morphological synapomorphic characters that clearly distinguish two groups of genera, formerly relating to two subfamilies, the monophyly of the clade Otitinae was not firmly supported by molecular phylogenetic reconstructions. The subfamily Ulidiinae was recovered as the basal likely paraphyletic group with high reliability. Overall, our results suggest the inclusion of the genera Homalocephala and Seioptera into the tribe Seiopterini (Otitinae). Three genera of Ulidiinae (Physiphora, Timia, Ulidia), eight genera of Otitinae (Ceroxys, Herina, Melieria, Myennis, Otites, Pseudotephritis, Seioptera, Tetanops), and the genus of Homalocephala with still unconfirmed systematic status were included in the analysis.

“…The labium has two papilla sensilla and a small pair medial pits which have been previously described only in mature larva of A. ludens (Carroll & Wharton 1989). The intermediate area of caudal segment presented two big papilla sensilla, which were never described before (Berg 1979, Steck & Malavasi 1988, Steck & Wharton 1988, Carrol & Wharton 1989, Steck et al 1990, White & Elson-Harris 1992, White et al 1999, Carroll et al 2004, Frías et al 2006. These traits may be diagnostic for the identification of third-instar larva of A. leptozona.…”

Descrição do Terceiro Ínstar de Anastrepha leptozona Hendel (Diptera: Tephritidae) RESUMO -A morfologia da larva do terceiro ínstar de Anastrepha leptozona Hendel é descrita. São analisados, em microscopia de luz e de varredura, o complexo antenomaxilar, as margens da abertura oral, o bordo, o órgão oral, o esqueleto cefalofaríngeo, os espiráculos anterior e posterior e o segmento caudal. As larvas do terceiro ínstar de A. leptozona têm um "esclerito ventral" abaixo do esclerito faríngeo, o qual é caracterizado pela primeira vez em espécies de Anastrepha. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Morfologia, esclerito ventral, mosca-das-frutasABSTRACT -The morphology of the third-instar larva of Anastrepha leptozona Hendel is characterized using optical and scanning electron microscopy. The antennomaxillary complex, oral ridges, labium, stomal sensory organ, cephalopharyngeal skeleton, anterior and posterior spiracles and caudal segment are described and illustrated. Mature larvae of A. leptozona present a "ventral sclerite" below the pharyngeal sclerite which is characterized for the first time in Anastrepha species.KEY WORDS: Morphology, ventral sclerite, fruit fly Anastrepha leptozona Hendel is a species widely distributed throughout the Neotropical region including records from Mexico,
