The Silba admirabilis species group is diagnosed within the genus Silba Macquart by the combination of partly yellow
tarsomeres and the distinctive features of the male genitalia. Thirteen new species within this species group are described from the Afrotropical region; namely Silba bakongo MacGowan sp. nov., Silba boulangi MacGowan sp. nov., Silba bredoi MacGowan sp. nov., Silba garamba MacGowan sp. nov., Silba hambai MacGowan sp. nov., Silba inimvua MacGowan sp. nov., Silba lubumbashi MacGowan sp. nov., Silba mbuti MacGowan sp. nov., Silba saegeri MacGowan sp. nov., Silba spiculata MacGowan sp. nov., Silba tekei MacGowan sp. nov., Silba upemba MacGowan sp. nov., and Silba wittei MacGowan sp. nov. Ten previously described  species within the genus Silba are also identified as belonging to the S. admirabilis species group. One species of the genus Lonchaea also belonging to this group is re-assigned to Silba.
The synonymies Silba displata McAlpine, 1964 = Silba hilli (Malloch, 1928) and Silba fragranti MacGowan, 2007 = Silba chalkei McAlpine, 1956 are established. A key and illustrations of male genitalia are provided to all species. Further information is presented relating to the taxonomy and distribution of previously described members of this species group whose range extends from the Afrotropical to Australasian regions.

Notes. Silba adipata (Fig. 50) is known from Spain (Mallorca), Italy, Montenegro, Greece, Cyprus, Canary Islands, Syria, Israel, Jordan, Iraq, Egypt and South Africa (mACgoWAn & freidBerg, 2008). It is exclusively found on Ficus carica where its larvae feed on the tissue of the syconia just under the peel, destroying the fruit and causing unripe fruit to fall prematurely. As such the present mention of this species from Malta represents a new record for this country. However, Borg (1992) states that the "fig fly (Lonchaea aristella Beck) is frequently met with on our fig trees, particularly on trees growing near heaps of manure, close to the farmstead, ...”. Lonchaea aristella is a synonym of Silba virescens Macquart, 1851 although the fact that this was recorded from figs may be a good indication of a misidentification of S. adipata (MacGowan & Freidberg, 2008). sALiBA (1963), following Borg’s (1922) record, again mentioned Lonchaea aristella as occasionally found on figs.

Therefore, every season there are good conditions for development of already existing pests, and new or previously not enough known pests, as well. During end of August in 2004, in Lastva Grbaljska, in fig fruit (cultivar patlidžanka) several dipterean larvae were noticed. They were slightly smaller and tender than, already known, larvae of the meditteranean fruit fly Ceratitis capitata, which has been, until than, the only known dipterean recognized as fig pest in Montenegro. After those larvae were examined in laboratory, it was noticed that posterior spiracles were different in comparison with C. capitata and formed pupae, as well. After adult emergence it was additionally confirmed the pest is black fig fly Silba adipata Mc Alpine (=Lonchaea aristella Beck.). During first half of July and second half of August in 2005 in Radanovic´i and Šušanj premature green fruit drop of cultivars rezavica and sušalica were noticed. After those fruits were examined in laboratory, presence of same larvae were noticed in majority of those, and damages of fruit tissue caused by larvae in form of brown galleries, as well. Round exit hole, formed by fully grown larva which already left the fruit, was also noticeable on majority of fallen fruits. Starting from the second half of August and during September in Lastva Grbaljska presence of larvae in semiripen and ripen fig fruits (cultivar patlidžanka) was noticed again. After fig fruits were sampled in period from half of July until half of September in 2006 and 2007 and examined, it was concluded that infestation of unripe figs was one of the main reasons for premature fruit drop. It was very noticable during July and first half of August for cultivars rezavica and sušalica. Premature fruit drop was not noticeably detected in green fig fruit cultivar patlidžanka. In this paper morphological characteristics of the species, importance of the pest, symptoms and intensity of attack are presented.1 aRadonjic, S.1 aHrncic, S. uhttp://www.cabdirect.org/abstracts/20103170504.html;jsessionid=716C2D41E3D9C8DB83D0DE8412A970E901385nas a2200145 4500008004100000245010400041210006900145300001200214490000700226520087000233100002001103700001901123700001601142856008101158 2012 eng d00aPredation on the pollinating fig wasp of Ficus erecta by larvae of Silba sp.

Species present included pollinating and non-pollinating fig wasps Blastophaga nipponica Grandi, 1921 and Sycoscapter inubiae Ishii, 1934, respectively, as well as an undetermined species of Silba Macquart, 1851 (Diptera: Lonchaeidae). Larvae of Silba sp. were found only in fig syconia containing B. nipponica. Observations revealed that larvae of Silba sp. fed on female adults of B. nipponica within fig galls by thrusting their heads through the intersegmental membrane. Furthermore, larvae of Silba sp. had a high predation rate (90%). These observations suggest that larvae of Silba sp. are specialized for feeding on B. nipponica and have a negative effect on populations of this species.1 aOkamoto, Tomoko1 aMacGowan, Iain1 aZhi-Hui, Su uhttp://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1479-8298.2012.00522.x/abstract01870nas a2200133 4500008004100000245009400041210007000135300001100205490000700216520138700223100002301610700001401633856008901647 1971 eng d00aREVISION DE LAS ESPECIES DE LA FAMILIA LONCHAEIDAE EN EL PERU (DÍPTERA: ACALYPTRATAE) 10 aREVISION DE LAS ESPECIES DE LA FAMILIA LONCHAEIDAE EN EL PERU DÍ a87=1160 v143 aThis is a revision of the systematic status of the species of Lonchaeidae from Peru, collected mostly in the Northern part of the Country in 1967-70. Previously described species by Hennig (1948) and McAlpine (1964), from material collected in the south and south-eastern part of the country were also included in this revision. Most of the species were collected by McPhail traps and no data on larval habits were recorded; however, the species Silba pendula (Bezzi), because of its economic importance as a fruit-pest, was thoroughly studied. All the. species treated are included, in the 3 known neotropical genera, Dasiops, Lonehaea, and Silba. Of 46 neotropical species of Dasiops Rondani, 19 species were collected in Peru, including 2 new species, D. chotanus n.sp., and D. ahusatus n.sp.; of 24 neotropical species of Lonchaea Fallen, 12 species ivere collected in Peru, including 2 new species, L. longistyla h.sp. and L. mcalpinei n.sp.; and of the 10 neotropical species of Silba Macquart, 6 species were collected in Peru, including a new species S. pseudopendula n.sp. A key of genera, based in McAlpine's (1960), a catalog for the neotropical species of the family, a key for the Peruvian species and a maps of their distribution in the national territories, are included: Descriptions are acompanied by drawings of male genital armatures and/or female ovipositors. 1 aKorytkoioski, C.A.1 aOjeda, D. uhttp://www.revperuentomol.com.pe/publicaciones/vol14/MOSCAS-LONCHAEIDAE-DEL-PERU.pdf01187nas a2200157 4500008004100000245013800041210006900179300001000248490000900258520054700267100001900814700001800833700002100851700001700872856014000889 2012 eng d00aA new species of fig-feeding Lonchaeidae (Diptera: Schizophora) from India and a checklist for the family in the Indian sub-continent0 anew species of figfeeding Lonchaeidae Diptera Schizophora from I a47-520 v32423 aA new species of Lonchaeidae, Silba lashker sp. nov. is described from specimens reared from figs in Jammu and Kashmir, India.

On fig trees flies fed mostly during the morning and late afternoon hours, predominantly on sweet exudates from ripe figs and on fresh or dry milky fig-tree sap exuded from injuried plant parts. The odor of this sap attracted the flies. Oviposition always took place in the eye of unripe figs, mostly during the afternoon hours until dark. As many as 63 S. adipata pupae were obtained from a single unripe fig. A parasite, Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae Rondani (Hym., Pteromalidae), emerged from S. adipata pupae. McPhail traps baited with 2% ammonium sulfate or 0.5 to 1 ml fresh fig-tree sap were attractive for the flies. Sticky, yellow traps were not effective1 aKatsoyannos, B.I. uhttps://lonchaeidae.myspecies.info/field-observations-biology-and-behavior-black-fig-fly-silba-adipata-mcalpine-diptera-lonchaeidae-and01038nas a2200133 4500008004100000245007100041210006800112300001000180490000700190520057500197100002200772700001700794856009300811 1984 eng d00aHexanol: a potent attractant for the black fig fly, Silba adipata.0 aHexanol a potent attractant for the black fig fly Silba adipata a71-740 v353 aHexanol was the only field attractant for the black fig fly, Silba adipata, among seven generally-occurring plant volatiles tested. This leaf alcohol, dispensed in polyethylene vials inside clear invaginated McPhail traps suspended on fig trees, captured 60 flies/trap/day with a 3:1 ratio of females to males. Hexanol alone was just as effective an attractant as a 2% ammonium sulpate solution but much more selective in attracting S. adipata. However, the combination of hexanol with ammonium sulphate captured three times as many S. adipata as either attractant alone1 aKatsoyannos, B.I.1 aGuerin, P.M. uhttps://lonchaeidae.myspecies.info/hexanol-potent-attractant-black-fig-fly-silba-adipata02222nas a2200133 4500008004100000245017500041210006900216300001000285490000700295520160900302100001901911700001801930856014001948 2006 eng d00aEffect of some attractive bait traps and independant factors in population density of Fig Fly Fruit Silba virescens (MacQ.)

The traps were hung at three different heights (1.5, 2 and 2.5 m). Results indicated the efficiency of two types; the fourth type (date honey and water at a proportion of 1:9) and the fifth type comprising a mixture of sugar (10%) and date vinegar (30%), both attracted an average of 43.2 and 45.1 fly/trap, respectively. The control trap type 6, containing water only, was the least attractive 0.9 fly/trap. As for the traps height, the height 2.5m attracted an average 34.3 fly/trap. The Turkish black proved to be more susceptible to infestation by the fly than the second variety (Northern Banati) (34.2 and 14.0%, respectively). The calculated mathematical equation of the effect of independent factors (temperature, relative humidity and wind speed) on the population density of the fly have shown positive and direct effect of temperature and wind speed on the vitality of the fly on one hand and the negative effect and an inverse relationship with relative humidity.
