Two new species of Phronia Winnertz, 1864 (Diptera, Mycetophilidae) from Taita Hills, Kenya
Two new Phronia Winnertz, 1864 species—P. hannarostiaesp. nov. and P. ristoisp. nov.—are described from Taita Hills in Kenya, representing the first named species of this genus in the African continent. The new species are morphologically similar to each other as well as to P. flobertae Matile – a species described from the Comoro Islands. These three species can be distinguished by details of the male terminalia, in particular by comparing the structures of the gonostyli. The new species are photographed and hand-drawn figures provided, and their taxonomy is discussed.
期刊介绍:
African Invertebrates is an international peer-reviewed, open-access journal that focuses primarily on the taxonomy, systematics, biogeography, and palaeontology of Afrotropical invertebrates, whether terrestrial, freshwater or marine. Aspects concerning biology, ecology, and conservation may also be considered where these relate to the primary focus areas. Papers dealing solely with biology, ecology, physiology, pests and pest control should be submitted elsewhere.
