Holotype m. , North Carolina, Macon 
Co., Highlands, 3,800 ft, 6.V.57 (J. 
R. Vockeroth); paratypes North 
Carolina, Swain Co., Great Smoky 
Mountains National Park, Clingman's 
Dome, 6,300 ft, 1 f., 20.V.57 (J. R. 
Vockeroth); Wake Co., at light, 1 m. , 
20. IV. 49 (no collector recorded); 
Georgia, Rabun Co., Pine Mountain, 
1,400 ft, 1 f., 4.V.57 (J. R. 
Vockeroth). Holotype and 1 paratype 
in CNC, 1 paratype in CUI, 1 in KAS. 
Phytoliriomyza dorsata (Siebke) 
(Figs. 1003-1005) 
Agromyza dorsata Siebke, 1864: 169. 
Holotype male from Norway in 
Zoologisk Museum, Oslo. 
Agromyza reverberata Malloch, 1924: 
191. Holotype lost, paratype female 
from Maryland in CNC (synonymy 
established by Spencer, 1969a: 194). 
Phyt oliriomyza dorsata, Spencer, 
1976a: 208. 
This holarctic species has previously 
been confirmed only in California and 
Maryland, although records given by 
Frick (1959) from Illinois and Indiana 
of .P. pacifica probably refer to P. 
dorsata . “ 
Records from four other States are 
given here . 
New records. 
Louisiana, Rapides Co., 11 miles SW of 
Alexandria, 1 f., 26. III. 60 (J. G. 
Chillcott), in CNC. 
Michigan, Cheboygan Co., Mackinac 
Strait, 1 f., 3. VIII. 10 (M. C. Van 
Duzee), in CAS. 
Pennsylvania, Centre Co., State 
College, 1 f., 20. V. 34 (S. W. 
Frost), in PSU. 
Virginia, Giles Co., Strong Creek, 
2,000 ft, 2 f., 26.V.62 (J. G. 
Chillcott), in CNC. 
Phytoliriomyza felti (Malloch), 
new combination 
(Figs. 989-991) 
Agromyza felti Malloch, 1914b: 310. 
Holotype male from New York in NYSM. 
Liriomyza felti , Frick, 1952a: 403; 
1959: 404; Spencer, 1969a: 297. 
Examination of the terminalia of a 
male paratype in INHS shows that this 
species correctly belongs in Phyto- 
liriomyza , to which it is now 
transferred. 
The aedeagus (fig. 990) closely 
resembles that of _P. pteridii Spencer 
(1973c: figs. 3, 4), a leaf miner on 
bracken in Europe. The bristles on the 
surstylus and on the hindcorner of the 
epandrium (fig. 991) clearly indicate 
the generic affiliation of P. felti . 
Known hosts are the two ferns Asplenium 
pinnatif idum and Camptosorus rhizophyl- 
lus . Frost (1924: pi. V, fig. 3) in-
