Abstract:

Most Neotropical species of Cecidomyiidae (Diptera) have been described from Brazil, but a list of species with occurrence in the country has never been published. Little is known about their distribution and richness in the Brazilian phytogeographic domains. Additionally, a list of host plant species has never been gathered. The present study aims to fill these knowledge gaps and provides an overview of this family in Brazil. For this, data were obtained mainly from the literature, but also from the Cecidomyiidae collection of Museu Nacional and two herbaria (RB and R). Based on the site "Flora do Brasil 2020", botanical names were updated and plant species origin and distribution were verified. A total of 265 gall midge species have been recorded in Brazil, most from the Atlantic Forest (183), followed by Cerrado (60), and Amazon Forest (29). The other phytogeographic domains shelter from five to ten species. Phytophagous gall midges occur on 128 plant species of 52 families, almost all native, being 43 endemic to Brazil (21 endemic to Atlantic Forest, five to Cerrado, and one to Amazon). Although, the taxonomical knowledge is focused on the Atlantic Forest, each domain has its own fauna composition and these informations can be useful for environmental conservational purposes. About 58% of the Brazilian fauna are known only from the type-locality. In order to fill these gaps, it is necessary and important to collect in uninvestigated areas.

Resumo:

A maioria das espécies neotropicais de Cecidomyiidae (Diptera) foi descrita do Brasil, mas uma lista das espécies com ocorrência no país nunca foi publicada. Pouco se sabe sobre sua distribuição e riqueza nos domínios fitogeográficos brasileiros. Adicionalmente, uma lista das espécies de plantas hospedeiras nunca foi elaborada. O presente estudo visa preencher estas lacunas de informação e fornecer um panorama geral desta família no Brasil. Para tal, dados foram obtidos principalmente da literatura, mas também da coleção de Cecidomyiidae do Museu Nacional e de dois herbários (RB e R). Com base no site "Flora do Brasil 2020", os nomes botânicos foram atualizados e a origem e distribuição das espécies vegetais foram verificadas. Um total de 265 espécies de cecidomiídeos é assinalado para o Brasil, a maioria da Mata Atlântica (183), seguida pelo Cerrado (60) e Floresta Amazônica (29). Os outros domínios fitogeográficos abrigam de cinco a dez espécies. Os cecidomiídeos fitófagos estão associados a 128 espécies de plantas de 52 famílias, quase todas nativas, sendo 43 endêmicas do Brasil (21 endêmicas da Mata Atlântica, cinco do Cerrado e uma da Floresta Amazônica). Embora o conhecimento taxonômico se concentre na Mata Atlântica, cada domínio tem sua própria composição faunística e estas informações podem ser úteis para a conservação ambiental. Cerca de 58% da fauna brasileira é conhecida apenas da localidade-tipo. Para preencher estas lacunas, é necessário e importante coletar em áreas não investigadas.

Introduction

Cecidomyiidae are one of the most speciose families of Diptera, with more than 6,500 species. They are cosmopolitan and known mainly as gall-inducers (Gagné & Jaschoff 2017GAGNÉ, R.J. & JASCHHOF, M. 2017. A catalog of the Cecidomyiidae (Diptera) of the world. 4rd Edition . Digital. ). Most species have been described from the Holarctic Region, while the Neotropical fauna comprises less than 10% of the known species. This low richness reflects the scarcity of taxonomic studies in this region. Most species have been described from Brazil. Nevertheless, a list of Brazilian species has never been published.

Brazil comprises six phytogeographic domains: Amazon Forest, Atlantic Forest, Caatinga, Cerrado, Pampa, and Pantanal, which greatly differ from each other in flora composition, and consequently they shelter different assemblages of gall-inducing species. The richness of cecidomyiid species by domain is still unknown, as well as the number of gall-inducing, predaceous, inquilinous, fungivorous, and free-living phytophagous species. Most of them appear to have a restricted distribution, but there are several locality records scattered in the literature.

Additionally, a list of host plant species has never been elaborated and many botanical names need to be updated. The main goals of the this study are: 1) to present a general overview of the richness of this family in Brazil, 2) to provide for the first time a list of gall midges species with occurrence in Brazil as well as in each phytogeographic domain, 3) to fill a knowledge gap about the distribution of this group, and 4) to provide for the first time a list of host plant species in Brazil.

Materials and Methods

The last version of the world catalog of Cecidomyiidae written by Gagné & Jaschhof 2017GAGNÉ, R.J. & JASCHHOF, M. 2017. A catalog of the Cecidomyiidae (Diptera) of the world. 4rd Edition . Digital. was used as starting point. Using the find tool, all species with records in Brazil were retrieved. Papers with the original description of each species were consulted to obtain more detailed data on its occurrence localities. Furthermore, a literature survey was performed on the database "Web of Science" using "Cecidomyiidae" and "Brazil/Brasil" as key words in order to verify the gall midge species described after 2017. Based on the site "Flora do Brasil 2020", botanical names were updated and plant species origin and distribution were verified. Synonyms were provided in brackets after the correct names to allow linking of retrieved data to the original publications. Additionally, all insect gall inventories of Brazil were also consulted to recover information about locality records of the gall midge species, based on host plant species and gall morphology, whenever possible, or on gall-inducer identification. Data on phytogeographic domains were obtained using maps of IBGE 2004 or directly from the literature. In some cases, domains were not determined because data on localities were insufficient. When gall midge species were recorded in localities occupied by two different domains, both were considered as part of their distributional area.

Besides, the Collection of Cecidomyiidae (Diptera) of Museu Nacional, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (MNRJ) was examined to aggregate unpublished data of species occurrence. Simultaneously, the Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro herbarium (RB) and the Museu Nacional herbarium (R) were consulted in a search of galled exsiccates. This procedure was adopted since galls are extended phenotypes of the gall-inducing insects (Stone & Schönrogge 2003STONE, G.N. & SCHÖNROGGE, K. 2003. The adaptative signifixance of the insect gall morphology. Trends Ecol. Evol. 18:512-522.), so their presence on the host plants indicates the gall-inducing species' presence. Data on localities were retrieved from labels and new records were established by comparison with the literature. The geographic distribution of all gall-inducing species was updated. Data on Brazilian localities were detailed, including states and municipalities. To discriminating Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo states from Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo municipalities, the word "state" was used whenever necessary.

Results

In Brazil, 265 species of Cecidomyiidae of 93 genera have been recorded. It corresponds to about 43% of the Neotropical fauna richness; 226 are gall-inducing (about 85%), 15 are predaceous, 11 are fungivorous, nine are inquilinous, three are free-living species, and one is kleptoparasite in spider webs. Phytophagous gall midges are collectivelly associated with 52 plant families, 105 genera, and 128 determined species. Among these hosts, only five are exotic, one is naturalized and all others are native to Brazil (Table 1). Futhermore, ten gall midge species are associated with hosts identified only in family, totaling six families, and 37 with hosts identified only in genus, totaling 35 genera. Additionally, host plants of six cecidomyiid species are unknown. Besides, the identification of some hosts are doubtful, e.g.: "Mikania cf. biformis", "? Smilax sp.", "Guarea sp. poss. guidonia (L.)", "Guapira pernambucensis (Casar.) Lundell (possibly Guapira opposita (Vell.) Reitz", "poss Smilax sp.", and the record of Youngomyia pouteriae on Pouteria torta (Mart.) Radlk. (Sapotaceae) corresponds to a misidentification of the gall-inducing species.

Three incongruities were also observed between the host plant and gall-inducing species geographic distributions, namely: 1) Kielmeyera rosea Mart. & Zucc.

Most gall-inducing species are monophagous (about 90%), but oligophagous and polyphagous species have been reported. Oligophagous species are represented by at least 15 gall midge species, 11 of them occur on two or three plant species of the same genus and four on two or three genera of the same family. The number of hosts of some gall midge species could not be determined, since the level of plant identification does not allow it. This is the case of five gall midge species, four of them have been associated with an identified plant species plus a non identified congeneric host, and the other with an identified species plus a morphospecies of the same plant family. A single cecidomyiid species is polyphagous, occurring in plants of different families.

Fabaceae, Asteraceae, and Myrtaceae are the plant families with the greatest richness of gall midge species (28, 26 and 25), followed by Nyctaginaceae (16). They together host about 36% of the Brazilian fauna richness. Among these families, Myrtaceae exhibit the highest average of gall midge species by host plant species, 1.8, while Fabaceae have a similar value to Asteraceae (1.2 and 1.3, respectively). The average number in Nyctaginaceae was not stablished, because most plants were not identified in species (Table 2). All other families shelter from nine to one gall midge species, but most of them (23) (about 44%) shelter a single gall-inducer. The average of gall midge species by host plant species was 1.0 in 33 families. This is the most frequent value (Table 2). Eugenia L. (Myrtaceae) and Mikania Wild. (Asteraceae) host 13 and 12 gall midge species, respectively, followed by Guapira Aubl. (Nyctaginaceae) with 9. Guapira opposita (Vell.) Reitz, Mikania glomerata Spreng., and Calophyllum brasiliense Cambess (Calophyllaceae) highlight as plant species with the greatest number of gall midge species (seven, six and five, respectively).

The gall-inducers are represented by 80 genera. Among them, Lopesia Rübsaamen, 1909, Asphondylia Loew, 1850, and Clinodiplosis Kieffer 1895 are the most speciose, with 25, 23 and 20 species, respectively (Table 3). Predators are represented by four genera, Aphidoletes Kieffer, 1904, Diadiplosis Felt 1911, Feltiella Rübsaamen, 1910, and Lestodiplosis Kieffer, 1894, being Diadiplosis the most speciose, with ten species, while the others comprise three (Lestodiplosis) or one species (Aphidoletes and Feltiella). The first genus feeds on aphids, the second on scale insects (Coccoidea), the third on mites and the fourth mostly on other cecidomyiids, but also on mites. They have been used as biological control agents of some plant pests. Fungivorous species are represented by five genera, Dichodiplosis Rübsaamen, 1910, Haplusia Karsch, 1877KARSCH, F. 1877. Revision der Gallmucken. Munster i. W., E.C. Brunn. , Mycodiplosis Rübsaamen, 1895, Stomatosema Kieffer, 1904, and TermitomastusSilvestri, 1901SILVESTRI, F. 1901. Descrizione di nuovi termitofili e relazioni di essi con gli ospiti. Bol. Mus. Zool. Anat. Comp. R. Univ. Torino 16:1-6.. Three of them comprise a single species, while Haplusia comprises two and Stomatosema six. Inquilines are represented by six genera, Clinodiplosis Kieffer, 1894, Contarinia Rondani, 1860, Dialeria Tavares 1918, Meunieriella Kieffer, 1909, Neolasioptera Felt, 1908 and Trotteria Kieffer, 1902. Among them, Dialeria and Trotteria include exclusively inquilinous species. Five of them comprise a single inquilinous species in Brazil, while Meunieriella comprises four. All were recorded in galls of other Cecidomyiidae. Although these cecidomyiids have been reported as inquilines, they are probably kleptoparasites, according to Luz and Mendonça-Júnior (2019)LUZ, F.A. & MENDONÇA-JÚNIOR, M.S. 2019. Guilds in insect galls: who is who. Fla. Entomol. 102:207-210.. Free-living species are less common, being represented by three genera, Clinodiplosis, Lopesia, and Prodiplosis Felt, 1908, each with a single species. Their larvae feed on plant reproductive organs. And only one species, Didactylomyia longimana (Felt, 1908), is reported as the kleptoparasite in literature.

Richness of gall midge species (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) by Brazilian phytogeo-graphic domain.

Most species of gall midges (about 90%) have been recorded exclusively in Brazil, while only 26 (about 10%) occur in other countries. The Atlantic Forest is the phytogeographic domain with the greatest richness of species, 183, followed by Cerrado (60 species), Amazon (29 species), Pampa (10 species), Caatinga (8 species), and Pantanal (5 species) (Table 3). These values correspond to about 69%, 23%, 11%, 4%, 3%, and 2% of the Brazilian fauna of Cecidomyiidae. Fourty-one cecidomyiid species are associated with 43 endemic Brazilian plant species. Among them, 21 hosts are endemic to Atlantic Forest, five to Cerrado, and one to Amazon. No hosts were endemic to Caatinga, Pampa and Pantanal (Table 4). Two-hundred thirty five gall midge species (235) are known from a single domain: 157 from Atlantic Forest, 35 from Cerrado, 17 from Amazon Forest, 8 from Pampa, 4 from Caatinga, and 3 from Pantanal. The others have been reported in two (23 species) or three domains (seven species). One-hundred and thirty-seven species (about 52% of the Brazilian fauna) are known only from the type-locality.

In order to provide the state of the art of the Cecidomyiidae fauna in each Brazilian phytogeographic domain, data are presented separately.

AMAZON FOREST

Twenty-nine species of Cecidomyiidae of 19 genera have been reported in the Amazon Forest, being 28 gall-inducers and one fungivorous species. Among the former, 23 are monophagous, while five are oligophagous species: Asphondylia tournefortiae Rübsaamen, 1915RÜBSAAMEN, E.H. 1915. Beitrag zur Kenntnis aussereuropäischer Gallmucken.

Beitrag: Gallen aus Brasilien und Peru. Marcellia 6:110-173.).

Gall-inducers are associated with 17 plant families, 20 genera and 12 determined species. Callophylaceae is the plant families with the greatest richness of gall midge species (five), followed by Asteraceae with three, and Asteraceae and Burseraceae, both with two. All other families (13) shelter a single gall midge species (Table 5). Nine gall midge species are associated with host plants identified only in genus: Cecropia sp., Clusia sp., Coussapoa sp., Mikania sp., Neea sp., Serjania sp., Solanum sp., and Sterculia sp., and two gall midge species were obtained from host plants identified only in family, one from Malpighiaceae and the other from Lauraceae. Two cecidomyiids, Lopesia maricaensis and Lopesia aldinae induce galls on Brazilian endemic plants, Protium brasiliense (Burseraceae) and Aldina heterophylla (Fabaceae), being the last endemic to Amazon Forest (Table 4). The remainder plants are native to Brazil, except Lantana camara, a naturalized species.

Richness of gall midge species (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) by vegetable family in Brazilian phytogeographic domains.

The Amazonan fauna comprises 19 genera of Cecidomyiidae, 14 represented by one species, three (Asphondylia, Bruggmannia and Clinodiplosis) by two species, and one, Lopesia, by five species, being the most speciose genera (Table 3).

Nineteen gall midge species are known only from the Amazon Forest, while eight species occur in other domains. Twenty-two species have been recorded only in Brazil, while seven occur in other countries too: Clinodiplosis eupatorii, Iatrophobia brasiliensis, Perasphondylia reticulata, Schismatodiplosis lantanae, Lopesia conspicua, Lopesia elliptica, and Lopesia linearis.

ATLANTIC FOREST

A total of 183 species of Cecidomyiidae of 71 genera have been recorded in the Atlantic Forest, 162 of them are gall-inducers, ten are predators (Diadiplosis abacaxi, D. bellingeri, D. floridana, D. jamboi, D. martinensis, D. multifila. D. vaupedis, Lestodiplosis braziliensis, L. floricola, and L. maricaensis), eight are probably kleptoparasites (Clinodiplosis maricaensis, Contarinia ubiquita, Dialeria styracis, Meunieriella dalechampiae, M. insignis, M. lantanae, N. fariae, and Trotteria quadridentata), two are free-living species (Clinodiplosis florícola and Lopesia davillae), and a single one has fungivorous larvae (Dichodiplosis triangularis).

Sixteen gall-inducing species are oligophagous, while the others are monophagous. Phytophagous species have been recorded on 38 plant families, 73 genera and 82 determined species. Myrtaceae, Asteraceae, Nyctaginaceae, and Fabaceae are the superhost families, which together shelter 69 of the gall midge species (22, 19, 14, and 14, respectively). This value corresponds to about 39% of the gall-inducing species richness (Table 5). Thirty-eight gall midge species, when described, were recorded on 21 host plants identified only in genus. Later, two of them, Asphondylia stachytarphetaBarnes, 1932BARNES, H.F. 1932. Notes on Cecidomyidae. Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. (10)9:475-484. and Machaeriobia machaerii (Kieffer, 1913KIEFFER, J.-J. 1913. Diptera. Fam. Cecidomyidae. Fasc. 152. Wytsman, P., ed., Genera Insectorum. Bruxelles.) were obtained from identified plant species.

Eleven gall midge species have been recorded on five host plants identified only in family (Asteraceae: 2, Fabaceae: 3, Malvaceae: 1, Myrtaceae: 2, and Rubiaceae: 3). Fourty-eight gall midge species induce galls on endemic plants to Brazil, 36 of them on endemic plants to the Atlantic Forest (Table 4). The remainders are associated with native plants, except Schismatodiplosis lantanae, Asphondylia sennae, and Clinodiplosis melissae, inducers of galls on Lantana camara (a naturalized plant), Senna bicapsularis and Melissa officinalis, both exotic.

The most speciose genera in the Atlantic Forest are Lopesia (with 18 species), Asphondylia (with 15), Clinodiplosis (with14), and Bruggmannia (with 11). They together shelter about 32% of the species richness. The other genera comprise from nine to one species, being the majority (44 genera) represented by a single species (Table 3).

CAATINGA

Only eight gall midg species of seven genera have been reported in the Caatinga, six of them are gall-inducers, one is predator, Feltiella curtistylus, and one is probably kleptoparasite, Dialeria styracis. All inducers are monophagous.The phytophagous species are associated with three plant families, Combretaceae, Fabaceae, and Styracaceae, four genera, Bauhinia L., Combretum Loefl, Mimosa L., and Styrax L., and three determined species, Combretum leprosum, Mimosa tenuiflora, and Bauhinia brevipes. Fabaceae shelter the great richness of gall midge species, four (Table 4). Three gall midge species occur on a host plant identified only in genus, Styrax sp., and a single species occur in a plant identified only in family (Fabaceae). All host plant species are native to Brasil. None of them is endemic. All gall midge genera are represented by a single species, except Lopesia, with two species (Table 3).

CERRADO

A total of 60 gall midge species of 25 genera have been recorded in the Cerrado, 52 of them are gall-inducers, six are fungivorous, Didactylomyia longimana, Stomatosema pantaneira, S. sisbiota, S. terena, S. terere, and Termitomastus leptoproctus, one is inquiline, Meunieriella spinosa, and one is predator, Diadiplosis saccharum.

All phytophagous species are monophagous. Phytophagous gall midges have been recorded on 21 plant families, 37 genera and 37 determined species. Fabaceae, Asteraceae and Calophyllaceae comprise the greatest richness of cecidomyiid species, ten, six and six, respectively (Table 5). Seven gall midge species occur on host plants identified only in genus, totaling seven plant genera. All host species are native. Among them, eleven are endemic to Brazil, two being endemic to Cerrado (Table 4). Lopesia, Asphondylia, and Bruggmanniella are the best represented genera of Cecidomyiidae, with 14, 7, and 4 species, respectively (Table 3).

PAMPA

Only ten species of gall midges of nine genera have been recorded in the Pampa (List 5), nine of them are gall-inducers and one was caught in flight. One species is oligophagous, Asphondylia moehni, the other inducers are monophagous. They are associated with eight plant families distributed in eigth genera and six determined species. All families shelter a single gall midge species, and there are two doubtful records on Smilacaceae (Table 4). Three gall midge species occur on host plants identified only in genus, totaling three plant genera. All host plants are native, one of them being endemic to Brazil (Table 5).

Discussion

Brazil shelters 265 gall midge species, about 43% of the diversity of the Neotropical fauna. Brazil is the largest country in the Neotropics, with 8, 515, 767. 049 km² of extension (IBGE, 2012IBGE 2012, Agência IBGE notícias. Available on https://agenciadenoticias.ibge.gov.br/agencia-sala-de-imprensa/2013-agencia-de-noticias. Accessed on 14.April.2020.
https://agenciadenoticias.ibge.gov.br/ag... ), has a peculiar and diverse flora, with 46, 4922 species (Flora do Brasil, 2020FLORA DO BRASIL 2020. Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro [under construction]. Available on: http://floradobrasil.jbrj.gov.br. Accessed on: 14.April.2020.
http://floradobrasil.jbrj.gov.br... ), and also its Cecidomyiidae fauna is the most taxonomically studied. These facts together explained this high percentage.

Most species induce galls, since this is the predominant habit in this family (Gagné 1994GAGNÉ, R.J. 1994. The Gall Midges of the Neotropieal Region. Ithaca, Comell Univ. Press, 352p.). The majority of the host plants are identified in species, but 52 hosts are identified at supraespecific categories, what difficults the establishement of the right number of host species.

Most hosts are native, but few are exotic, being represented by introduced useful plants, as Melissa officinalis L. (Lamiaceae), a medicinal herb, Mangifera indica L. (Anacardiaceae) with edible fruits, Senna bicapsularis (L.) Roxb. (Fabaceae), Spiraea salicifolia L. (Rosaceae), and Erigeron strigosus Muhl. ex Willd. (Asteraceae), ornamental plants. The gall midges associated with M. indica, S. salicifolia, and E. strigosus are also exotic, but those associated with M. officinalis and S. bicapsularis were described from Brazil and they have never been reported in other countries, suggesting that these hosts were colonized by Brazilian gall midges.

Lantana camara is naturalized and its gall-inducing species was described from Brazil, but it occurs in several Latin American countries. Probably the midge was introduced together with its host.

Incongruities between the host plant and gall-inducing species distributions were observed, suggesting a plant misidentification. In this case, plant vouchers should be examined, but unfortunately the number of vouchers are rare in the literature.

Twenty-seven botanical names were uptaded, but synonyms were cited in brackets to allow their association with the original references. This procedure is important to gather data on the same species, even if under different names.

Most gall-inducing species are monophagous (about 90%), what was expected, as most gall-inducing insects exhibit a high degree of host-plant specificity (Abrahamson et al. 1998ABRAHAMSON, W.G., MELIKA, G., SCRAFFORD, R. & CSÓKA, G. 1998. Gall-inducing insects provide insights into plant systematic relationships. Am. J. Bot. 85(9):1159-1165., Carneiro et al. 2009CARNEIRO, M.A.A., BRANCO, C.S.A., BRAGA, C.E.D., ALMADA, E.D., COSTA, M.B.M. & MAIA, V.C. 2009. Are gall midge species (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) hostplant specialists? Rev Bras Entomol 53:365-378.). Fabaceae, Asteraceae, and Myrtaceae are the plant families with the greatest richness of gall midge species, as in several inventories of insect galls in Brazil (e. g. Almada & Fernandes 2011ALMADA, E.D. & FERNANDES, G.W. 2011. Insetos indutores de galhas em florestas de terra firme e em reflorestamentos com espécies nativas na Amazônia Oriental, Pará, Brasil. Bol.

http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1676-0611-BN-2... ). Among them, Myrtaceae exhibit the highest average of gall midge species by host plant species, probably because this family is one of the most diverse in the Atlantic Forest, the most investigated biome, and their gall-inducing species are the most studied (e. g. Oliveira & Maia 2005OLIVEIRA, J.C. & MAIA, V.C. 2005. Ocorrência e caracterização de galhas de insetos na restinga de Grumari (Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil). Arqu. Mus. Nac. 63(4):669-676., Rodrigues et al. 2014RODRIGUES, A.R., MAIA, V.C. & COURI, M.S. 2014. Insect galls of restinga areas of Ilha da Marambaia, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Rev. Bras. Entomol. 58(2):173-197., Carvalho-Fernandes et al. 2016CARVALHO-FERNANDES, S.P., ASCENDINO, S., MAIA, V.C. & COURI, M.S. 2016. Diversity of insect galls associated with coastal shrub vegetation in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. An. Acad. Bras. Cienc. 88(3):1407-1418.). Eugenia (Myrtaceae) and Mikania (Asteraceae) highlight among all other plant genera by sheltering the highest richness of gall midges. Similarly, Guapira opposita, Mikania glomerata, and Calophyllum brasiliense highlight among all other plant species. Their richness has also been pointed out by other authors (Maia 2001bMAIA V.C. 2001b. The gall midges (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) from three restingas of Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. Rev. Bras. Zool. 18(2):305-656., Maia & Mascarenhas 2017MAIA, V.C. & MASCARENHAS, B. 2017. Insect galls of the Parque Nacional do Itatiaia (Southeast Region, Brazil). An. Acad. Bras. Cienc. 89(1 Suppl.):505-575. , Melo-Júnior et al. 2018).

The best represented gall midge genera are Lopesia, Asphondylia, and Clinodiplosis. The first is predominantly Neotropical while the others are cosmopolitan, but well represented in the Neotropics (Gagné & Jaschhof 2017GAGNÉ, R.J. & JASCHHOF, M. 2017. A catalog of the Cecidomyiidae (Diptera) of the world. 4rd Edition . Digital. ). Species of Clinodiplosis, Contarinia, Dialeria, Meunieriella, Neolasioptera and Trotteria have been reported as inquilinous species in galls. But in fact, according to the ecological concept, they should be considered kleptoparasites, since they do not promote the production of new tissues, as inquilines do (Luz & Mendonça-Júnior 2019LUZ, F.A. & MENDONÇA-JÚNIOR, M.S. 2019. Guilds in insect galls: who is who. Fla. Entomol. 102:207-210.).

Several gall midge species are associated with endemic hosts. This information is very important, because it shows the peculiarities of the Brazilian fauna, revealing species with exclusive occurrence in the country. The high number of species known only from the type-locality indicates how the geographic distribution of Brazilian fauna is still poor. This scarcity of data is reinforced by the high number of species which have never been collected again since their description.

Concerning phytogeographic domains, Atlantic Forest shelters the highest richness of gall midge species, followed by Cerrado, Amazon Forest, Pampa, Caatinga, and Pampa. Amazon Forest and Cerrado are the largest, with an area of 2,196,943 and 2,036, 448 Km², respectively, followed by Atlantic Forest with 1,110,182 Km² and Caatinga with 844.453 Km². The two others are the smallest, Pampa with 176,469 and Pantanal with 150,355 Km². They also differ in richness of flora. Amazon Forest shelters about 50,000 plant species of Angiospermae, Atlantic Forest 20,000, Cerrado 11,600, Caatinga 3,500, Pampa 3,000 and Pantanal only 900 (MMA, 2020). Considering these data, we should expect the highest richness of gall midge species in the Amazon Forest, according to the plant richness hypothesis (Southwood 1960SOUTHWOOD, T.R.E. 1960. The abundance of the Hawaiian trees and the number of their associated insect species. Proc Hawaii Entomol Soc 17:299-303., 1961SOUTHWOOD, T.R.E. 1961. The number of insect associated with various trees. J Anim Ecol 30:1-8.), since this domain offers quantitatively and qualitatively the greatest amount of resources for the gall-inducers. Nevertheless, the highest richness is reported in the Atlantic Forest, the most investigated domain. This result is an effect of the strong sampling efforts in Atlantic Forest areas, the poor knowledge of the Cecidomyiidae fauna of other Brazilian biomes and the lack of taxonomists in our country.

Most gall midge species occur in a single domain, differing from their host plants which can be found in more than one domain. This suggests that the distribution of gall-inducing species can be wider than that which we known today. Arriola et al. 2016ARRIOLA, I.B., MELO-JÚNIOR, J.C.F, MOUGA, D.M.D, ISAIAS, R.M.S, COSTA, E.C. 2016. Where host plant goes, galls go too: new records of the Neotropical galling Cecidomyiidae (Diptera) associated with Calophyllum brasiliense Cambess. (Calophyllaceae). Check List 12:1924. argued that the distribution of the galling-insects is similar to that of the host plant. So, collections in uninvestigated ou poorly investigated localities are necessary to fill these geographic distribution gaps.

Nevertheless, several gall midge species are associated with plants endemic of a specific phytogeographic domain, as Amazon Forest, Atlantic Forest, and Cerrado. These data reveal the peculiarities of each one and can be useful for the establishement of environmental preservation areas.

Conclusion

This study is the first dataset of gall midge species with occurrence in Brazil. It totalize 265 species (43% of the Neotropical fauna); 85.6% are gall-inducers. Phytophagous gall midges are associated with at least 128 host plant species. Fabaceae, Asteraceae and Myrtaceae shelter the greatest richness of gall-inducing species. Lopesia, Asphondylia and Clinodiplosis are the best represented cecidomyiid genera. Most species (about 90%) are known only from Brazil. The Atlantic Forest as the most investigated domain comprises the highest species richness. Several gall midge species induce galls on plants endemic to Brazil. Each Brazilian phytogeographic domain has its own species composition. There is a high number of cecidomyiid species which are known only from the type-locality. Data indicate that the Brazilian fauna is the most studied in the Neotropical Region, confirm the greatest richness of gall midges on plant families which are well represented in Brazil, reveal the most diverse genera in the country, show the peculiarities of each domain and highlight how the geographic distribution of most species is still poor.
