Gastrozona Bezzi, 1913: 105 View in CoL . Type species Tephritis fasciventris Macquart View in CoL , by original designation.

This genus is closely related to Carpophthorella View in CoL and Chaetellipsis View in CoL , differing mainly in head and wing pattern characters. These three genera have the following characters: third antennal segment rounded or only slightly angled at apex, costal setae weak, female with an elongate, apically setose aculeus and the male with long anal papillae ( Hancock and Drew, 1999). For details of the genus Gastrozona View in CoL , refer to Hancock and Drew (1999).

Eight species have been listed by Hancock and Drew (1999), of which only one is recorded from Malaysia, namely G. fasciventris (Macquart) . Chua (1999), however, listed another species, namely Gastrozona nr. parviseta Hardy. This is now described as Gastrozona selangorensis new species in this paper.
