Genus Micromorphus Mik, 1878

Micromorphus jinshanensis ( Wang, Yang et Grootaert, 2009) , comb.n.

= Nepalomyia jinshanensis Wang, Yang et Grootaert, 2009: 44 .

MATERIAL EXAMINED. 8♂, 2♀, Khankaisky distr. , 6 km N Novokachalinsk, 45°09´31.8´´N, 131°59´58.2´´E, 31.08– 4.09.2019, Lake shore, Kosheleva [ ZIN] .

NOTES. The species was described by two males [ Wang et al., 2009]. The holotype was found in environs of Beijing, while the paratype was collected from the Oriental Sichuan province (Qingchengshan mountain).The description contains a mixture of Nepalomyia and Micromorphus generic concepts. Nevertheless, the figures of antenna and hypopygium provided by the authors clearly testify that the Nepalomyia jinshanensis must be recombined with the genus Micromorphus . The Russian material examined is identical morphologically with those figures.Howev- er, despite the description, our specimens has no acrostichal setae, hind basitarsus has indistinct basal spur in males, hypandrium is simple, without deep V-shaped apical incision, but forming acute angle with simple phallus. It is highly likely that the description of N. jinshanensis belongs to the paratype representing a different species of mainly Oriental Nepalomyia , while the figures belong to the holotype representing a species of Micromorphus . On the other hand, Micromorphus ellampus Wei, 2006 and M. heterophalla Wei et Yang, 2007 , both described from the Oriental Guizhou province and bearing acrostichals on the mesonotum [ Wei, 2006; Wei, Yang, 2007], belong probably to another genus.

DISTRIBUTION. Type locality: Beijing : Jinshan mountain . Palearctic: China (Beijing);?Oriental: China (Sichuan). New for Russia. The genus is new for Primorye .
