Abstract

The shore-fly genus Oedenopiforma Cogan is reviewed, including new information on Oedenopiforma argentea (distribution), Oedenopiforma javana (comb. nov. and O. orientalissyn. nov.), and Oedenopiforma vockerothi (sp. nov. from United Arab Emirates). Structures of the male terminalia of these three species, a diagnosis of the genus, and a key to the included genera of Dryxini and species of Oedenopiforma are presented.

Résumé

Nous révisons le genre Oedenopiforma Cogan chez les éphydrides et apportons de nouvelles informations sur Oedenopiforma argentea (répartition), Oedenopiforma javana (nouvelle combinaison et O. orientalisnouvelle synonymie) et Oedenopiforma vockerothi (nouvelle espèce des Émirats arabes unis). Nous présentons des descriptions des structures des derniers segments abdominaux des mâles de ces trois espèces, une diagnose du genre, ainsi qu'une clef d'identification des genres inclus dans les Dryxini et des espèces d’Oedenopiforma.
