Abstract

Dichaetomyia scutellaris (Zielke, 1974) is recognized as a good species, distinct from Dichaetomyia rangeri (Zielke, 1973). The differences between the two species are described and listed in a table. As the name of Dichaetomyia scutellaris is preoccupied by Dichaetomyia scutellaris Malloch, 1928, Dichaetomyia perineta nom. nov. is proposed as replacement name. Amendments for the existing key to Madagascan Dichaetomyia species are proposed.

Keywords
