Redefinition of Cornexcisia Fan & Kano, 2000 (Diptera: Sarcophagidae), with the first description of the female of Sarcophaga kurahashii (Shinonaga & Tumrasvin, 1979) Author Wang, Chao Author Gao, Yunyun Author Pape, Thomas Author Zhang, Dong text Zootaxa 2019 2019-09-11 4668 3 410 420 journal article 25475 10.11646/zootaxa.4668.3.6 5b78366e-1b6c-4154-ad68-bd9f7e70a536 1175-5326 3449676 0450AF47-ADB1-454B-AE86-C8E749931DB2 Sarcophaga ( Cornexcisia ) longicornuta (Fan & Kano) , comb. nov. Cornexcisia longicornuta Fan & Kano, 2000: 251 . Type locality: China , Yunnan , Xishuangbanna. Holotype (SECA) (not examined). Distribution. Oriental: China ( Yunnan ). Biology. Unknown. Remarks. Known only from the holotype , which should be deposited in SECA according to the original description, but which was not recovered during a visit by CW to this institution. Fan & Kano (2000) described the very long postpedicel as having a remarkable excision on the anterolateral surface, just below the insertion of the arista. They used the remarkable length and the unique shape, which differentiates the species from all other species of Sarcophaga , as justification for establishing a new genus. With Cornexcisia longicornuta described based on a single female, the possibility remains that it is conspecific with S. ( C. ) cygnocerca , S . ( C .) suthep or another Oriental Sarcophaga known from the male sex only, and that the autapomorphic excision of the antenna is female specific. This will have to be tested through further collecting of males and females of Oriental Sarcophaga spp.
