New Species of the Genus Adoxomyia Kertész, 1907 (Diptera, Stratiomyidae) with Black Antennae

Abstract

Two new species of the genus Adoxomyia Kertész, 1907, Adoxomyia smirnovi Krivosheina sp. n. and A. sublugubrissp. n., are described from Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. Extended descriptions of A. alaschanica Pleske, 1925, A. lugubris Pleske, 1925, and A. obscuripennis (Loew, 1873) similar to the new species are given. Adoxomyia smirnovi sp. n. differs from the closely related A. alaschanica in short black spines on the scutellum and in the structure of the male genitalia with a narrow sclerotized projection of the synsternum. Adoxomyia sublugubris sp. n. differs from the closely related A. lugubris in a pale capitullum of the haltere and in very long spines on the scutellum. A key to the five species is compiled.
