A new cecidomyiid genus Pseudoperomyia gen. n. is described from Malaysia, with 8 new species: P. acutistyla sp. n., P. bidentata sp. n., P. humilis sp. n., P. parvolobata sp. n., P. intermedia sp. n., P. longicornis sp. n., P. macrostyla sp. n., and P. platistyla sp. n. Pseudoperomyia belongs to the lestremiine tribe Micromyini with Anodontoceras as its sister group. The result of a computerized parsimony analysis for the Micromyidi largely supports a recently-published hypothesis on the phylogeny of this taxon.
