Popis: | Summary: A commented check-list of the tachinid species inhabiting the Canary Islands (Spain) is provided, with special emphasis on hosts species and floral resources. Nine new local records are provided and Cylindromyia rufipes is reported for the first time for the Canary Islands, thus increasing the species number to 52. Zoogeographic analysis of the area revealed that there are differences in chorotype composition among islands, with the easternmost islands being richer in Mediterranean species and poorer in endemics. These differences may be due to ecological differences between the easternmost island and the remaining islands. Relevance regarding influence of tachinid as pollinators is discussed. |
