Atherigona tigris sp. n.

Fig. 61

Etymology: From the Latin tigris (tiger), after Tiger Falls, Royal Natal National Park, South Africa.

Diagnosis: This species is similar to A. secrecauda but differs from it in having the hypopygial prominence weakly bifurcate and not bilobate in the shape of two fused triangles. Whilst A. tigris has the trifoliate process with a similar coloration, it differs structurally by not having a winglike hood and having the median piece without any emargination and with only a slight apical dilation.

Description:

Male.
