The North American fauna Understanding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on U.S. older adults: self-reported pandemic-related concerns and consequences in a cross-sectional survey study of Drymeia Meigen was studied.Four new species are described (Drymeia hucketti sp.nov., Drymeia ponti sp.
nov., Drymeia vockerothi sp.nov., Drymeia woodorum sp.
nov.), and three new synonymies are proposed: Drymeia amnicola (Huckett, 1966) (= Drymeia rivalis (Huckett, 1966), syn.nov.); Drymeia glacialis (Rondani, 1866) (= Drymeia alpicola (Rondani, 1871), syn.
nov.); and Drymeia spinitarsis (Aldrich, 1918) (= Drymeia longiseta Sorokina & Pont, 2015, syn.nov.).
An annotated checklist, DNA barcodes (when available), and keys for each sex of the 24 named species of North American Drymeia are provided.The utility of DNA barcodes for the identification of Drymeia species across a wide geographical range was explored using sequences from five countries.A match between morphology and DNA barcodes was found for 71% (22/31) of species studied (including three unnamed taxa).The remaining nine species clustered into two Efeitos de diferentes frações inspiradas de oxigênio no índice biespectral em cães submetidos à infusão contínua de propofol Effects of several inspired oxygen fractions on the bispectral index in dogs submitted to continuous infusion of propofol groups of taxa with very little interspecific variation within clusters (groups of two and seven species).
Caution is advised against using DNA barcoding as the only determination tool for Drymeia material without prior knowledge of its limitations for certain species groups.
