Abstract

ORIG CZ

V originále

The known world fauna of Sciomyzidae embraces 533 described species. However, there is a large number of distinguished but still undescribed species and the tropical faunas appear insufficiently investigated. A number of species with aquatic and at least semiaquatic larvae may be estimated to about 280 spp., though the number of species with known biology of are larvae belonging to these ecological groups reach 156 species. The known aquatic forms are dominant in the subfamily Sciomyzinae (521 spp.). Semi-aquatic larvae of Sciomyzini chiefly are parasitoids and predators of exposed aquatic snails whereas aquatic larvae of Tetanocerini mainly include (at least in the last, third instar) overt predators of aquatic molluscs and aquatic oligochaetes.

In Czech

Světová fauna čeledi Sciomyzidae zahrnuje 533 popsaných druhů i když tropická fauna je zatím znáná jen nedostatečně. Počet druhů s vodními larvami je odhadován na 280 druhů, blíže je však známo jen 156 druhů. Semiakvatické larvy tribu Sciomyzini žijí převážně jako parazitoidi vodních plžů, larvy tribu Tetanocerini zahrnují převážně predátory vodních plžů nebo máloštětinatců.
