Abstract

A new littoral species representing a new subgenus of the genus Rhamphomyia is described. The species has adult external features similar to those of the subgenus Ctenempis, but the male genital and pregenital segments are much simpler than in Ctenempis, and the female cerci are much short and stout, furnished with short strong thorn-like bristles, quite unique character state in the genus.
