Abstract
The attraction of two Chymomyza species C. procnemoides and C. aldrich ii, to the same damaged tree over 19 days in summer 1987 near Mt. Lake Hotel, Giles Co., Virginia is documented, confirming a previous repor t that Chymomyza species may be sympatric on the same fresh damaged tr ee/cut wood. A total of 17 males and 7 females were captured. An exces s of males to females captured has been reported in Japan and Hungary.
