Froggattimyia sp. near hirta

I have a single female specimen that resembles hirta in the pale ground colour of the postpronotal lobe, but differs in having the parafacial setulose on the dorsal quarter only (as, e.g., in F. aurea); also in having tergite 5 entirely pale in ground colour, tergite 3 with a pair of submedian marginal setae, and the scutellum with moderately large apical setae.

This seems likely to represent a new species, but further material, including males, will be required to confirm this.

Specimen examined. Queensland, bred ex sawfly, 8 Jun. 1945. A. R. Brimblecombe (BMNH); CIE collection no. 18168.
