Phytobia ( Calycomyza ) verbenae , Frick, 1956: 300 ; Spencer, 1963: 349 . Calycomyza verbenae , Esposito, 1994: 116 . Diagnosis. Wing length 1.8 mm . Fronto-orbital predominantly yellowish, brown to upper fronto-orbital seta; face black; pedicel brown; legs brown; calypter greyish with margin black, fringe black. Aedeagus (Fig. 70a and 70b in Spener 1963): basiphallus slightly sclerotized, with two extensions distally; mesophallus slightly elongated, about 1.5 times the length of distiphallus, enlarged basally and with distal end bent ventrally in lateral view; distiphallus short, forming two short tubules covered by a pair of plates. Host-plants. Verbenaceae— Glandularia bipinnatifida (Nutt.) , Stachytarpheta cayennensis (Rich.) Vahl , Verbena brasiliensis Vell. , Verbena neomexicana (A. Gray) Small , Verbena urticifolia L. Distribution. Brazil , USA . Material examined. Brazil , Pará state , Salvaterra : 0º47′03.8″S , 48º38′08.8″W , 23-II-93 , M.C. Esposito [col- lector], ex leaf of Stachytarpheta cayennensis ( 2 ♂ ) . Comments. This species is similar to Calycomyza durante Spencer, C. bahamarum , and C. lantanae , and is differentiated from the latter two primarily by the black face, the coloration of the calypter fringe, the coloration of fronto-orbital, and the male genitalia. Calycomyza verbenae and Calycomyza lantanae are morphologically similar, distinguished primarily by the aedeagus. Calycomyza lantanae presents a mesophallus sliglithly longer than C. verbenae (twice the length of distiphallus), the tubulues of distiphallus completely covered by a plate (not covered basal and distally in C. verbenae ). Larvae are miners of Verbenaceae , forming blotches on the surface of the leaf.
