Figs 1, 2 View Figs 1–6

MATERIAL EXAMINED. Kemerovo Region: Kemerovo distr., Mozzhukha, steppe,

sweeping, 30.V 2009, 1♀ (D.Efimov).

REMARK. This species is externally similar to Contacyphon laevipennis (Tournier, 1868)

which was reported for Western Siberia by Kirejtshuk (2001) as Cyphon phragmiteticola

Nyholm, 1955. A female with similar genitalia ( Fig. 1 View Figs 1–6 ) was recorded from Kyrgyzstan

(Klausnitzer, 2016b, and personal communication). Probably this species is new undescribed species. To clarify its status additional material is needed, including males.
