Abdomen
black, matt. Male genitalia: epandrium (
Fig. 35
) sparsely covered with long setae; surstylus densely covered with thin setulae; cerci narrow and cylindrical, slightly curved, reaching almost 0.35 length of epandrium; phallus as in
Figs 33–34
: distiphallus complex suboval, distally branching into two curved and diverging tubes; mesophallus cylindrical and narrow, basally slightly expanding; basiphallus consists of two irregularly shaped sclerites, right sclerite merged at base with the phallophorus, the left sclerite has a long, curved and very narrow outgrowth, which reaches backwards to about the midpoint of the phallophorus; both hypophallus and paraphallus absent; hypandrium (
Figs 36–37
) broad, almost pentagonal; ejaculatory apodeme (
Figs 38–39
) small, with asymmetrical blade.
Female and biology
unknown.
Comments
. The species is very similar to
Phytomyza scotina
Hendel, 1920
with regards to the dark colouring of the head, thorax and legs, the distinct and conspicuously projecting orbits above the eye in profile, the deeply extended gena posteriorly, the broad cheeks, the peculiar length of the second costal section, and the two rows of
acr
. The new species mostly differs in the structure of genitalia. In
Ph. scotina
, the distiphallus has a peculiar shape with a typical shaped dorsal and ventral part and distal diverging tubes, the mesophallus is very long and narrow; the hypophallus is narrow and long, a triangular paraphallus is present, and the ejaculatory apodeme is large, with a short stalk and a very wide blade (see
Papp & Černý 2020
: Figs 188D–J).
