| description | The fauna of Diptera in the hypoarctic
zone of Taimyr Peninsula and high mountains of Altai was
studied and compared. It was established that in both faunas
Brachycera Cyclorrhapha are dominant at all taxonomic
ranks (family, genus, species); Nematocera is the second
dominant group, however far behind Cyclorrhapha;and
Brachycera Orthorrhapha is the third, subdominant,
group. The same families of Diptera in each three suborders
constitute the core of species richness both in the North
and in the high mountains. In Nematocera these are
Chironomidae, Tipulidae and Mycetophilidae. In the
suborder Brachycera Orthorrhapha the absolute dominants
are Dolichopodidae and Empididae. In Brachycera
Cyclorrhapha the dominants are Syrphidae, Muscidae,
Scathophagidae and Anthomyiidae. The same families of
Diptera have the lowest taxonomic representation both in
the North and in the high mountains. For example, only one
species was found in the families Bibionidae, Cecidomyiidae,
Drosophilidae, Hypodermatidae, Pipunculidae, Sciomyzidae
and Therevidae. |
