Anomalostomyia namibica, a new genus and species of Afrotropical Tachinidae (Diptera)

Italian Journal of Zoology, Volume 74, No. 1, Year 2007

A new genus of Tachinidae, Anomalostomyia gen. nov., including only the type species Anomalostomyia namibica sp. nov., is described from the Brandberg in Namibia. Its systematic position within the Tachinidae is discussed. With only males available, it is provisionally placed in the subfamily Exoristinae and tribe Blondeliini. A taxon likely referable to this genus was previously placed in the Eryciini by Crosskey (1984).
