| Description | Lutovinovas, E. 2012: New country and host records for Lithuanian Tachinidae (Diptera).-Entomol. Fennica 23: 231-238. This paper updates the knowledge on the family Tachinidae (Diptera) in the Lithuanian fauna. As the result, 68 species are first records from the country and eight species are deleted from the previous list. Among species listed in this paper, 54 represent first records for the Baltic States and 16 are new for all of Eastern Europe. Parasitoid-host associations for 13 species of Tachinidae with 15 host taxa that comprise 17 couples are recorded for Lithuania for the first time. Among these, Meigenia uncinatata is a new parasitoid of the leaf beetle Gonioctena quinquepunctata (Chrysomelidae). |
