Papp, L.: Three new milichiid species (Diptera, Milichiidae) from Hungary

2(1) Orbits with a short or indistinct ors between bases of posterior ors and vti. Proboscis longer than height of head. 3 (4) Frons dull. Fore coxae and femora very long and much swollen (Fig. 18/D of PAPP 1978). Genae not broad, narrower than flagellomere. Dorsal part (i.e. majority) of abdominal terga 1-4 with grey microtomentum. Anterior dc longer than half length of posterior one (Hungary, Yugoslavia) pachymera BECKER, 1908 4 (3) All parts of frons or at least orbits shining. Fore coxae and femora normal (Fig. 18/E of PAPP 1978). Gena broader than flagellomere. All parts of abdomen shining black. 5 (6) Longest axis of head between occiput and vibrissal angle (Fig. 18/B of Papp 1978). All parts of frons shining. Head bristles very short and comparatively thin. Anterior dc pair shorter than half length of posterior dc (widespread, Holarctic) glabra FALLÉN, 1820 6 (5) Longest axis of head between vertex and base of palpi, i.e. perpendicular to longitudinal axis of body (Fig. 45 of HENNIG 1937). Interfrontal plate dull except for a pair of thin impression bordering ocellar tringle. Anterior dc longer than half length of posterior dc (Great Britain, Switzerland) britannica HENNIG, 1937 The unique features of this new species facilitated a study of the known species of Madiza. SABROSKY listed only glabra from the Nearctic region (with confiisa CURRAN, 1934 as a junior synonym). There are not any species known from the Neotropical, Afrotropical or Australasian and Oceanian regions (see e.g. SABROSKY 1973, 1989) (and no species corresponding to the description by the key of SABROSKY (1987) or to the description of the genus in PAPP (1978) was found in the unnamed material of the HNHM). SABROSKY (1977) listed only Madiza lacteipennis HENDEL, 1913 for the genus Madiza from the Oriental Region. Two female specimens of this species were found in the collection of the HNHM from Formosa (Taiwan), which is the type-locality of the species (its 3 female syntypes are actually from Anping and Tainan). Our specimens are from Anping and Takao, i.e one of them is a topotypic specimen (the smaller half of the SAUTER'S collection was purchased by K. KERTÉSZ for the HNHM). Our study revealed that lacteipennis HENDEL is a species of Leptometopa BECKER, 1903, and so it is proposed in a new combination of Leptometopa lacteipennis (HENDEL, 1913). Since there are specimens of all the known species of Madiza in our collection (incl. that of Leptometopa halteralis (COQUILLETT), formerly placed in Madiza), the above key was put together for the World species.
