The Nearctic species of Calliphora Robineau-Desvoidy are revised and all species are redescribed and/or diagnosed. Diagnostic characters to permit reliable identification of both sexes of Calliphora aldrichia (Shannon) and C. montana (Shannon) and detailed distributional records for both species are provided for the first time. A lectotype is designated for Calliphora loewi Enderlein, 1903. A revised key to the 13 species of Nearctic Calliphora is also included. The key is based on examination of over 1,000 specimens from across North America and the structure of the terminalia of both sexes of each species. Complete illustrations of the terminalia of both sexes are provided for all species, including those of eight poorly known species: Calliphora alaskensis (Shannon), C. aldrichia (Shannon), C. coloradensis Hough, C. grahami Aldrich, C. latifrons Hough, C. livida Hall, C. montana (Shannon) and C. terraenovae Macquart. The female terminalia of C. alaskensis, C. aldrichia, C. coloradensis, C. livida and C. montana are illustrated for the first time. Barcode data for all 13 species of Nearctic Calliphora are provided, several for the first time. Results support current species concepts but barcodes failed to distinguish C. aldrichia and C. montana.
对丽蝇属(Calliphora Robineau-Desvoidy)的新北界物种进行了修订,对所有物种进行了重新描述和/或诊断。首次提供了用于可靠鉴定奥氏丽蝇(Calliphora aldrichia (Shannon))和蒙大拿丽蝇(C. montana (Shannon))雌雄两性的鉴别特征以及这两个物种详细的分布记录。为1903年的洛氏丽蝇(Calliphora loewi Enderlein)指定了一个选模标本。还包括了新北界丽蝇属13个物种的修订检索表。该检索表基于对来自北美各地的1000多个标本以及每个物种雌雄两性尾器结构的研究。提供了所有物种雌雄两性尾器的完整图示,包括8个鲜为人知的物种:阿拉斯加丽蝇(Calliphora alaskensis (Shannon))、奥氏丽蝇(C. aldrichia (Shannon))、科罗拉多丽蝇(C. coloradensis Hough)、格雷厄姆丽蝇(C. grahami Aldrich)、宽额丽蝇(C. latifrons Hough)、铅灰丽蝇(C. livida Hall)、蒙大拿丽蝇(C. montana (Shannon))和新地丽蝇(C. terraenovae Macquart)。首次展示了阿拉斯加丽蝇、奥氏丽蝇、科罗拉多丽蝇、铅灰丽蝇和蒙大拿丽蝇的雌性尾器。提供了新北界丽蝇属所有13个物种的条形码数据,其中几个是首次提供。结果支持当前的物种概念,但条形码未能区分奥氏丽蝇和蒙大拿丽蝇。
