TLDR
Although this species has been recorded from many US states and Canadian provinces, it has not been established in all of these places, and the main economic damage is restricted to the western part of North America.

Remarkable fly (Diptera) diversity in a patch of Costa Rican cloud forest: Why inventory is a vital science.
TLDR
The number of species of Diptera in tropical regions has been severely underestimated and the actual number may surpass the number ofspecies of Coleoptera.

Anchored enrichment dataset for true flies (order Diptera) reveals insights into the phylogeny of flower flies (family Syrphidae)
TLDR
Anchored hybrid enrichment was successful in producing a robustly supported phylogenetic hypothesis for the syrphids, and with the newly designed probe kit this analysis could be rapidly expanded with further sampling, opening the door to more comprehensive analyses targeting problem areas in Syrphid phylogenetics and ecology.

Comprehensive inventory of true flies (Diptera) at a tropical site
TLDR
The intensive inventory of a four-hectare tropical cloud forest in Costa Rica for one year yielded 4332 species of Diptera, providing the first verifiable basis for diversity of a major group of insects at a single site in the tropics.

A review of the early stages and host plants of the genera Eumerus and Merodon (Diptera: Syrphidae), with new data on four species
TLDR
Early stages of four hoverfly species are described, and it is suggested that in the larvae of E. nudus the sclerotisation and size of the mandibular hooks suggest that this larva can generate decay from intact plant tissue.

Global population genetic structure and demographic trajectories of the black soldier fly, Hermetia illucens
TLDR
The dynamic population genetic history of a cosmopolitan dipteran of South American origin shaped by striking geographic patterns is document, which reflects both ancient dispersal routes, and stochastic and heterogeneous anthropogenic introductions during the last century leading to pronounced diversification of worldwide structure.
