(Figs. 76–77)
Material examined. IOWA: Winneshiek Co., 43°26'32.50"N, 92°0'10.32"W, 17.vii.2015, em. 13.viii.2015, C.S. Eiseman, ex Heliopsis helianthoides, #CSE1995, CNC564707, CNC564708 (2♂); MASSACHUSETTS: Franklin Co., Northfield, 276 Old Wendell Rd., 18.vii.2016, em. 5–7.viii.2016, C.S. Eiseman, ex Heliopsis helianthoides, #CSE2846, CNC654189–654193 (1♂ 4♀); OHIO: Delaware Co., Sunbury, Monkey Hollow Rd., 20.vii.2015, em. 7–17.viii.2015, C.S. Eiseman, ex Heliopsis helianthoides, #CSE1972, CNC564733–564745 (3♂ 9♀ 1 unemerged from puparium).
Hosts. Asteraceae: * Heliopsis helianthoides (L.) Sweet, Rudbeckia L. (Scheffer & Lonsdale 2018). The “undetermined yellow-flowered composite” illustrated by Scheffer & Lonsdale appears to be Heliopsis helianthoides.
Leaf mine. (Figs. 76–77) Greenish, turning brown; a blotch mine that may be compact or narrow and elongate, in the latter case following the leaf margin; frass diffuse. Scheffer & Lonsdale (2018) stated that the mine starts at the leaf apex, but this is not always the case. Up to four white larvae may feed in a single mine.
Puparium. Brown; formed outside the mine.
Distribution. USA: *IA, *MA, NY, *OH, VT (Scheffer & Lonsdale 2018).
Comments. Scheffer & Lonsdale (2018) collected larvae from Rudbeckia in June and adults emerged after overwintering. All of our specimens were collected as larvae in July and adults emerged within a month. Larvae from all three collection sites were observed to exit their original mines and establish new ones elsewhere (Fig. 77). The ability to do so is common in other leaf-mining flies (Anthomyiidae, Drosophilidae, Ephydridae), but in five years of rearing we have observed it in Agromyzidae on just one other occasion. This was on Hackelia virginiana (L.) I.M. Johnst. (Boraginaceae) in Dutchess Co., New York on 22 June 2013; unfortunately we were unable to rear adults. Phytomyza ovalis Griffiths is the only agromyzid recorded from Hackelia, but it is not known to occur east of Colorado. A group of Agromyza species is associated with Boraginaceae and the New York Hackelia feeder may be one of these.

Fig. 4
Material examined: 3 females and 1 juvenile; Iran, Khuzestan Province, Izeh, Takht-e Kashan, 31°50’N, 49°52’E, 15.III.2018; leg. A. Zamani. – 1 large juvenile male (probably subadult; ex coll. A. Senglet); Iran, Kerman Province, 20 km north of Ravar, 31°26’N, 56°51’E, 1150 m alt.; 14.IV.1974; leg. J. Garzoni.
Remarks: The available material consists only of females and juveniles, which show no clearly distinctive features. The vulva of the largest female from Khuzestan is slightly different from those of P. raddei and P. roxana females illustrated in the literature (Schwendinger & Zonstein, 2011: figs 4A-H, 5A-H, 8A-H), and therefore it is quite possible that the specimens from southwestern Iran belong to another new species. However, until an adult male from this population becomes available, this will remain an open question. The juvenile male from Kerman may be conspecific with the holotype of P. gedrosia sp. nov., but that also requires confirmation by collecting adult males at the same locality.

Feldman, ex Rubus pensilvanicus, #CSE4179, CNC939838 (1♂).
Hosts. * Rosaceae: Rubus cf. allegheniensis Porter, R. occidentalis L., R. pensilvanicus Poir.
Leaf mine. (Fig. 79) A long, gradually widening, linear mine with frass in small grains.
Puparium. Reddish-brown; formed outside the mine.
Distribution. USA: *MA, NC, TN; Canada: AB, BC, NS, ON.
Comments. Our rearing records indicate this species is bivoltine, with larvae feeding in late spring and early summer and in autumn. Spencer (1969, 1990) and Spencer & Steyskal (1986) reported a long, white, upper surface linear mine, relatively wide at the end, caused by an unidentified Agromyza on Rubus idaeus L. and R. odoratus L. in Ontario, Minnesota, and Virginia. This may well have been the work of A. vockerothi. We have seen similar mines (including in photographs submitted to www.BugGuide.net) on these and other Rubus spp., including R. allegheniensis Porter, R. armeniacus Focke, R. hispidus L., and R. parviflorus Nutt., in Connecticut, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, New Hampshire, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Rhode Island, Washington, Wisconsin, and New Brunswick.

(Fig. 80)
Material examined. OHIO: Delaware Co., Sunbury, Monkey Hollow Rd., 1.viii.2016, em. 26–29.viii.2016, C.S. Eiseman, ex Verbesina alternifolia, #CSE2951, CNC654471 (1♀).
Host. Asteraceae: Verbesina alternifolia (L.) Britton ex Kearney.
Leaf mine. (Fig. 80) Green, beginning at the leaf margin near a cluster of feeding punctures produced by the adult female’s ovipositor; five larvae feeding together, forming a gradually widening blotch. The larvae fed side by side throughout their development, following the leaf margin to the apex, all the way down to the base of the leaf on the other side, then reversing direction and feeding immediately adjacent to the existing mine. Frass is initially diffuse, later in dark, closely spaced small lumps and short streaks.
Puparium. Yellowish-brown to reddish-brown; formed outside the mine.
Comments. No Agromyza has been associated with Verbesina previously. This species will likely prove to be A. ambrosivora or A. virginiensis Spencer.

H. arachthi was described on the basis of a single male collected in 1991 in the Arachthos River, on the border between Arta and Ioannina districts, Ipiros province, western Greece. The species was so far only known from the holotype, and is apparently closely related to Hydraena cappadocica Jäch, 1988. A single teneral male of H. arachthi was found in marginal gravels on 26/vi/ 2012 in the Alphios River nr. Archaea Olympia, this being the first record from the Peloponnese, and a significant range extension for this apparently rare species. Hydraena simonidea Orchymont was found with H. arachthi in the Alphios, together with numerous H. morio and H. subjuncta.

Host. Poaceae: Dichanthelium (Hitchc. & Chase) Gould.
Leaf mine. Solitary larva forming an irregular whitish blotch on the lower surface, with liquidy green to blackish frass smeared randomly throughout. Visible as whitish mottling on the upper leaf surface.
Puparium. Pale reddish-brown; formed outside the mine.
Comments. Two Agromyza species, A. parca and A. pudica, have now been reared from Dichanthelium spp., but their mines have always been on the upper leaf surface. Only a single example of this underside mine was found, and no upper surface mines were found with it. The larva was collected on 30 December; it pupariated by 5 January, and was kept at room temperature until the adult emerged on 31 March.

Lawyers asleep at the wheel? The GM-Fisher Body contract
Creators: Goldberg, Victor P.
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2008
Subjects: Contracts

description: In the analysis of vertical integration by contract versus ownership one event has dominated the discussion—General Motors' merger with Fisher Body in 1926. The debates have all been premised on the assumption that the ten-year contract between the parties signed in 1919 was a legally enforceable agreement. However, it was not. Because Fisher's promise was illusory the contract lacked consideration. This note suggests that GM's counsel must have known this. It raises a significant question in transactional engineering: what is the function of an agreement that is not legally enforceable.

description: Kana Distant
Kana Distant, 1908: 285; Type species: Kana thoracica Distant, 1908.
Yaoundea Linnavuori, 1979: 964. Type species: Yaoundea semela Linnavuori, 1979 (synonymy by Wang et al. 2017b: 440).
Diagnosis. Species of Kana may be distinguished from other Nirvanini by the following combination of traits: dorsal coloration mostly pale yellow with black markings absent or limited to few narrow lines or small spots; crown flat or concave, glabrous, longer than wide, median carina not elevated; forewing venation well delimited, R with two branches; hind wing vein R2+3 present along costal margin (4 apical cells present); male pygofer with ventral process well developed; subgenital plate digitiform with ventral row of macrosetae; aedeagus without dorsal apodeme, distal part of shaft often strongly curved ventrad.
Notes. Eleven of the 12 previously described species of Kana are apparently restricted to the Indomalayan region, occurring from India and Sri Lanka to the Philippines. The single recorded African species was originally described in a separate monotypic genus, Yaoundea Linnavuori, subsequently synonymized with Kana by Wang et al. (2017b). Species of the genus are rarely encountered and most are known only from type material (Linnavuori 1979, Viraktamath & Wesley 1988, Viraktamath 1992). Although Kana (including junior synonym Yaoundea) was recovered as monophyletic in the analysis of Wang et al. (2017a), their dataset included only two representatives of the genus. Kana, as presently constituted, is somewhat heterogeneous morphologically in head structure, color pattern and male genitalia, although species can be reliably placed in the genus by the combination of diagnostic traits listed above. The new species from Madagascar described below resembles Kana decora (Melichar), previously known only from the female type from Sri Lanka, in coloration and head morphology. Further analyses incorporating larger numbers of species are needed to confirm the status and relationships of the genus.

Material examined. MASSACHUSETTS: Berkshire Co., Windsor, 30.vii.2014, em. 14.viii.2014, C.S. Eiseman, ex Glyceria melicaria, #CSE1322, CNC384892 (1♀).
Host. Poaceae: Glyceria melicaria (Michx.) F.T. Hubbard.
Leaf mine. Yellowish-green, at the tip of the leaf, occupying its full width; filled with closely spaced, granular frass. The single mine we found contained two larvae. It was on the abaxial leaf surface, but the leaf was twisted so that the mined portion faced upward.
Puparium. Brown; formed outside the mine.
Comments. Apart from the records of Agromyza parca presented in this paper, this is the first record of a North American agromyzid from Glyceria, although several species that occur here have been reared from other Glyceria species in Europe (Ellis 2016). Those in the genus Agromyza include A. albipennis Meigen, A. lucida Hendel, A. nigrella (Rondani), and A. nigripes Meigen. Of these, this female is only similar to A. lucida, having a short, round first flagellomere, paler tibiae, and brown hairs on a white calypter, but males would be required to verify identity. While initial study indicates that A. lucida is highly similar to A. parca, the specific boundaries of the taxa in this species group require much additional study to clarify concepts and relationships.

Material examined. MASSACHUSETTS: Nantucket Co., Nantucket, Nantucket Conservation Foundation Bird Sanctuary (North Beach St.), 11.vi.2013, em. 21–27.iii.2014, C.S. Eiseman, ex Rosa multiflora, #CSE1016, CNC384739–384741 (3♀).
Host. Rosaceae: Rosa multiflora Thunb.
Leaf mine. Greenish to pale brownish upper surface linear-blotch, with frass in scattered particles (forming two rows in the linear portion) and irregular lumps.
Puparium. Brown; formed outside the mine.
Comments. These three females may represent the normally bivoltine Agromyza idaeiana Hardy, which is recorded from Rosa spp. in Europe (Ellis 2016), but it is conceivable that they belong to a distinct, strictly univoltine species.

Paramere (Fig. 26A): (1) about three times longer than wide at the middle; (2) lateral groove deep; (3) parameral spine very long (about 1/5 the total length of paramere), pointed apically with very long and dense bristles; (4) paramere lobe developed and widely rounded; (5) inferior portion of paramere narrow, about half the width at the middle portion. Aedeagus (Fig. 26B, C): slender; (1) apical portion with fine and serrated denticulation, extended from the apex of the apical portion to the median expansion, lateral margin straight; (2) penis valve weakly dilated and with a slight central entrance (about 1/3 of the total length of apical portion); (3) median expansion widely developed and rounded apex; (4) lateral apodeme directed forward and almost the same size as the ventral process, (5) ventral process rounded in apex; (6) inferior portion of aedeagus weakly curved, almost straight in lateral view. Digitus (Fig. 26D): slender; (1) apical process developed, about twice longer than the digitus base and strongly expanded at the apex, (2) apex rounded, apical process strongly curved for the side; (3) anteroventral lobe short and rounded apically; (4) punctation larger on the side of the base; (5) evanescent bristles. Cuspis (Fig. 26E): slender; (1) apex pointed and tapering abruptly to the end; (2) long and sparse bristles on cuspis, more on the lateral margin; (3) punctation restricted on the lateral lobe; (4) lower part weakly developed, with short bristles.
Remarks. Richards (1978: 543) commented about the denticulation as “ventral teeth very small, acute, 20 in number” on the aedeagus, cuspis “with a small but strongly angular projection” and digitus with hairs short but quite numerous. Unfortunately, Richards did not draw the genitalia.

Hosts. Fagaceae: Castanea mollissima Blume, Quercus * alba L., Q. * ilicifolia Wangenh., Q. rubra L., Q. * stellata Wangenh., Q. * velutina Lam. (Spencer & Steyskal 1986); we have also seen mines on Q. laevis Walter, Q. macrocarpa Michx., and Q. margaretta (Ashe) Small.
Leaf mine. (Figs. 81–82) A brownish blotch, or sometimes irregularly linear, with frass in irregular lumps. Because mines are formed in leaves that are still expanding, the oviposition site and associated feeding punctures often open into conspicuous holes, and the mined portion of the leaf is disfigured. The mines on Quercus alba had distinct primary and secondary feeding lines (Fig. 81).
Puparium. Brown; formed outside the mine.
Distribution. USA: GA, IN, KS, MA, ME, NC, *OK, PA, SC, TN, VA; Canada: NS, ON; Puerto Rico. We have also seen photographed leaf mines from IL and NJ. Spencer & Stegmaier (1973) state that it is “virtually certain” that the Puerto Rican specimens mentioned in the original description represent another species, but the basis for this assertion is unclear.
