Key to the species of genus Timia View in CoL View at ENA with microtrichose black scutellum

1. Anepisternum sparsely microtrichose over its whole surface. Face yellow, with black vertical bands ventral of antennae; antenna and antennal groove black. Posteroapical extension of cell bcu 1.6 times as long as transverse section of vein Cu2. Scutum microtrichose, with rows of shining spots around setae. Scutellum convex dorsally, entirely microtrichose, with 4 scutellar setae ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 ). Genital structures as on Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 a.................... Timia (Empyelocera) planiceps Hendel, 1910 View in CoL

- Anepisternum entirely shining, without microtrichosity; upper part of anepisternum sometimes with some short black hairs. Other characters various............................................................................... 2

2. Wing with brownish cell sc and with faint brown apical spot. Scutellum convex dorsally, entirely microtrichose, with 4 scutellar setae ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 ). Posteroapical extension of cell bcu 0.6 times as long as transverse section of vein Cu2. Scutum microtrichose, with rows of small shining spots around setae. Genital structures—Fig. 2b....
